This early spring has caught me off guard and had to spend last week away planting trees that I was going to do week before easter but got them in and was back to this on monday. Built the sleeper wall over the last few days and pointed the paving today I'm happy with how it's starting to look. Next week is the concrete car wash a mowing edge and then planting so fingers crossed for this weather to hold up.
Can't see it from my house

Yes Rab I designed it the pointing is standard 3-1 slurry that has been tooled up I'll brush the excess wee bits you see off in the morning once it's dry. It was a top day for slurrying the weather was warm and calm and it turned out very well. I was going to use Rompox D1 but it was to expensive I used 680kg of sand and cement which would be 27 bags of it and would've cost about a grand less vat and labour whereas this cost about £250 inc labour and is totally bombproof and only took 4 hrs. Nae bad is nae gid is it nae. :;):

when you say slurry do you mean out of a gun or brushed in ?
looking better every photo
only thing for me is that pergola being off centre with the circle looks odd?
would have loved to have learnt more about planting but never had the opportunity to work with landscapers
bet the clients are happy

thank you Dave
cheers Luton
it was having a brick on edge as a coping and pillar cap but I talked the customer into something better. at first I had ordered terracotta pillar caps and copings at a cost of £940 and a 16 week wait for the 2 brick square pillar caps so we located a company only 6 miles from where the job is and they were made to order in 4 days
no the stepping stone were already in the lawn, all I did was to raise the height of the lawn to come flush with the patio instead of having a step
