no, we will just make good
i took 15 photos before we started as it has been well abused and we wont be repairing stuff others have done
its a council owned road and we are working direct for the council so its up to them,the way the money is, it will probably be made good
TBh not much of a road ,but thats all they have for the close

apologies for being thick, but how do you know exactly where to put the sewer pipe tony, or more precisely, the 90' bend inside the extension?

no rebar hen
just st4 concrete which the driver informed me is the same mix as they are using on the motorway = C30

we have detailed plans dan once the footprint is up ,its a simple task to measure off 2 walls

it is a wet room type construction at the end closest to the road ,so we have to use a harmer gully and altro flooring

Master Class Tony, you should set up a time lapse camera and put the lot on you tube.

Not forgetting to cut out the bit where your scratching your arse with your trowel and juggling your nuts ???

photie links CBA to do them individual but used the gunpoint from instarmac
the bag was 5kg smaller than easipoint but overall i would rate them the same to use
20kg of gun point did exactly 2M2 of brickwork albeit with very big perpends and beds and raked out to 25mm

so if estimating for BWK i would allow 10kg of pointing mix per metre squared

cheers
