Hy all,

I have a garage drive on a slope and another area to the side of the garage that slope down and meet forming a compound slope that I'd like to block. I've tried to merge the two as gently as possible and wondered if you'd any tips on how to successfully screed and lay blocks in this situation. I've layen standard rectangular driveway before and am assuming the merging part would need screeding by eye...
Any advice welcome.

you are thinking on the right lines dov
screed as much as is possible with straight edges then when they merge use a large plastic float and work your way back to the start point
the idea is that in sweep of your arm with a 3-400 mm float the surface will be smooth and curved
CBP is ideal for this type of application as you can twist the falls quite a bit

Just be aware of your sand depth.

i.e.You need to follow your sub base to a similar curve or you'll end up with little to no sand under the floated area
