Hi
First time poster so please go easy
I am currently in the middle of a massive makeover on my garden which will ultimately involve retaining walls, concrete bases in various places, decking, levelling an 80sqm lawn etc etc.
The question I have at the moment is as follows: -
I have to build a 6m dog run, we have the base pretty much set out and our intention was to finish it with a concrete base, the measurements are 6m X 1.6m, we have filled with MOT to about 250mm. Now i'm tempted to just finish with 2x3 concrete flags instead of the hassle (and cost) of ordering the concrete which would be about 1 cubic metre.
Can I lay the flags straight onto the MOT or should I lay some sand first ?
Should I stop being tight and get it concreted ?
