Hi Tony,Hi everybody.
One of the projects I am looking at for the future is a new patio and pathways for my back garden.Just recently I saw an advert in my local paper for patterned imprinted concrete.What are the pros and cons of this material,say,against the normal block paving.I would probably get a firm in to do it,so are there any dos and donts of getting it done.I reckon there is about 340 sq ft to lay.Not too sure what that is in metric.Any advice would be much appreciated.Thanks. ???

Stewart,

Have a look at the numerous threads posted in the "Other Pavings" part of the Brew Cabin regarding PIC. After reading these, it would not be my prefered method of paving.
