Hi All,
We are about to get a new double drive and we are trying to save as much money as possible so I am going to dig out the existing drive which at present is half concrete with rebar and the other is a slight hill with "dodgy" tarmac.
The brick that will be laid down by the tradesman will be Monksbridge Driveway kit x 5 (her choice), so I was wondering how deep I have to dig from the pavement level.
Also as the drive is approx 40sq, how much material would i need (sand, type 1 etc)
For info the driveway will not be beside the damp proof course of the house.
Any advice really appreciated and thanks in advance
