Hello everyone just like to say what a fantastic site and its my first time using a forum of any description.
I am planning to extend my current patio which is layed with 600x600 and 600x900 buff 50mm thick council flags . My plan is to lay as suggested 35-50mm of sharp sand and cement direct onto earth, compact down with vibrating plate and lay slabs on top .
My queries are as follows
Is screeding method suitable for laying these flags onto
What is the basic method for obtaining a level bed of screed is it best to install edge strips first and use these as a level to drag screed board along.
Finally how does the rest of the project sound
Thanks Evanbean
