Yes, that's the one we used!
I think there are other brands too that have different weight carrying properties and are different colours.

might have a look at that myself, just need to find if there is a maximum slope as my drive is a little steep by the looks of it

thanks  Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

These state 1 in 10 slope, our slope is just a little less than that and the system works fine.

hitch? walk over it with muddy boots and end up with gravel boots?

maybe gravel the car park area the blocks nearer to the house door.

I have some decorative gravel in the front garden, its a pain with conifer straw falling from some big trees near by, autumn leaves and we get a lot of moss balls rolling off the slate roof of the house, together they all spoil the grave. or thinking further maybe scoop the gravel up lay some retaining cells and relay, its only 1 ton
then I could rake the leaves and moss off without dragging the gravel and buying the leaves in it.

I hate gardening, its a busmans holiday for a farmer  At work

Agree that leaves etc could be a pain, we have a petrol blower for the leaves, works fine with not much effort. no experience with muddy boots though.

So they started digging on Monday morning, then stopped as the digger had the wrong hydraulic fittings for the pecker, then the pecker fell of the digger, a worn mounting pin. - all hired in stuff, new digger old pecker.

I was starting to wonder if Id employed a bunch of cowboys
Anyways they set on today and seem to have woken up properly, much more professional

After tea today I set on moving pecked up rubble with my forklift truck, dug a little deep and brought out 2 galv water pipes one of them snapped and started spurting water at good rate, I bashed a piece of wood up the flowing pipe and that sorted that.
The pipes seem to run under the yard in a pointless loop ( garage water supply I think when it was the washhouse?) they they wont be getting replaced. All new simplified water mains to be fitted.

We found the old well that I knew about, having filled it with rubble last year, after the concrete lid broke, but what we didnt expect was a bigger well right next to it, complete with foundations for some sort of pump house over the wells, very odd. rebar and concrete need to cap over both wells to prevent the block pavers sinking.

Im starting to wish we never started  At work
