hi lads, im thinking of laying some new paving slabs in my rear patio area, the existing flags are the large HEAVY council type they are all perfectly level and what i was wondering is rather than take them up and have to remove them could i lay a bed of morter on top of them and lay the new slabs directly over the existing or is this a big no no?
