because of the services all being 450-750 mm away from the house we hand dug around them today and lintelled into the existing brickwork with R15s
it is a living room for a disabled person ,his existing living room will be converted to a bedroom and his dining room to a special shower room
he has been waiting 8 years so him and his family are over the moon to see us
the tea is bountiful and good :)

Thanks Tony. Mick is great not spoke to him for a week or so though.

I will be pointing granite with Gftk 850 basalt.

I have always loved natural stone and if I had my way would only lay york stone or granite setts as i love laying it.

:D Keeps you strong and saves gym fees lol
