Can someone please advise if it ok to lay slate chippings over an existing block paved driveway - we are on a really tight budget but need to spruce up the front of the house - the old block paving is now a bit shabby looking and not very flat! Other than parking the car and access to the front door it doesn`t get heavily used. Will this be ok? I have read the FAQs and understand it isnt really recommended but does anyone have an opinion either way - will it be ok for now?

a resounding NO hayles!
can you not take up the block paving and relay it?
