Hi All

Going to try and lay my circle and squaring off kit after failing last year..lol (search my other threads with pics).

Anyway was thinking of laying all surrounding edge with paviors ?

Anyone done this ? It's mint Fossil colour.

Also going to point with Romex, which is the cheapest/easiest to use for light foot traffic, and anyone got any examples of colours.
They have 3 shades, shall i go light or dark.

Thanks and wish me luck.

Will post pics off progress.

With the coarse edges of Indian Sandstone the regular paviors might look strange. Your sandstone stockist should have 100x100x100 or 80x80x80 setts in sandstone (usually raj) or brown granite might look nice.

I have pictures of both on my computer, if you email me on richard [at] 4landscaping co uk I'll send you a couple.

EDITED: Good point, Tony. Thanks.

You shouldn't post your unmunged email address on the forum - the spambots will have you!

Back to Bilabonic: stone and concrete products don't mix. Stone flags with clay pavers are fine, and concrete flags with concrete pavers aren't a problem, but when you mix manufactured concrete with natural, they make uneasy bedfellows.
