Hi all
I have a slight problem.
I’ve dug out an area for a patio ready for the subbase – the final level of the paving stone will have me level for the majority of the lawn area (including a 1:80 slope down to lawn). However, over to the left, the area of lawn is quite a lot higher – meaning the paving level would sit 10cm below the lawn level!
Obviously one option is to dig out the lawn and re-turf but I was wondering if people had other ideas?
I could create a secondary level but really didn’t want this (as the patio is for little ones to ride bikes round etc) – I could maybe make a small one but am then worried about this becoming overly wet (as idea is currently for rain to run into lawn area).
Thanks in advance
Darren
