Hello i need some advice with a driveway im doing next week
i have block paved in the past but usually long paths never very wide areas. next week im doing a big driveway 10m x 20m in the centre of the driveway is one of those valley type drains its about 7m long running up the centre from top to bottom. the ground slopes gently towards this valley drain its compacted aggrogate that had loose stones on it. im not sure whats the best plan with the block paving.
the black bit is a section through ..
now do i attempt to create valleys from the edge of the drain to the corners and if so how would i cut the block in those creases. OR do i raise the drain to make the whole thing flat ? how would you guys proceed with this ?
