Hi, first post here, so sorry fopr no intro but we have a job to do so...
We took up a job that was done by some cowboys recently so we need to re-lay the blocks. We normally always use Driveline 50 blocks with equal nibs on all sides.
The ones that we have taken up are clay pavers with nibs on the stretch and head only. This is creating us a nightmare as we cannot get straight lines and would really really appreciate some advice on how to lay them correctly due to company rep etc etc.
Could someone please help us out as we need to lay this in tomorrow. It would be highly appreciated.
The clay pavers we are laying have 2 nibs on the head and 4 on the stretch, we have been testing for the last part of the day but no matter what we cannot work out how to get them to fit together and get good straight lines.
Only thing I can say is, that before we took it up the lines were not straight anyway, and when we look at the back patio the lines are also snakey. We are not doing the back, we are only doing the front due to major sinkage as there was NO hardcore laid by the original contractor.
Also, I did a google search earlier, and someone had posted that it's not even possible to get straight lines with clay pavers.
Like I said, it is the first time that we have used them, and we are at a loss as to what to do next...
Thanks in advance for any input...
