This is my first post so hello everyone.

I have just taken delivery of 65m2 of Indian Sandstone and wondered if anyone could help with a laying pattern?

I want to avoid coursing if possible! The 3 slab sizes I have are 840x560 560x560 & 560x280 in equal numbers. ???

I am surprised that you dont have any small units in your flags ???

Hi LLL

I only have the 3 sizes 840x560 - 560x560 - 560x280 unfortunatley. I did see the patio laying service but I'm way over budget and can't afford anymore outlay! Any help on a laying pattern would be really helpful.

You will need to pay for the service, for someone to sit down and do the work for free may take hours. Or lay it randomly avoiding crosses in the pointing....

I paid to have mine done (60sq metres)
To be honest my layout was very straightforward and I probably could've done it myself.
But I paid knowing that my design would definitely work, there's nothing worse than having your mix going off while you sit there scratching your head due to some unforessen problem

There are standard layouts you can use for patios (you should be able to find them by googling) but I'm not sure if your 3 sizes of flags you've been supplied are standard
