Patio at Hatton in a new build garden. Dig out old, hardcore base, cement slabs down.
To keep costs down an recycle we’ve used the original slabs and got a few more to complete.
Half way there!

Garden clearance and general maintenance at Allestree today with team JHW - Dave, Chris and Burf

Owner had recently moved in and having exhausted themselves getting the house sorted the garden had become a handful so we were asked in.
18 labour hours later, 6 hours each for 3 of us, the garden revealed its potential.
Huge beautiful space to enjoy. Block paving scrubbed and dew**ded.
Grass taken to a level it’ll green up and flourish. Edges cropped and hedge trimmed.
Cheers lads I appreciated your muscle!

Half way through a patio in Hatton.

Hand dug out to a depth of 150mm

Backfill with hardcore to 25-50mm below slab base level

Compact it then lay slabs

Hard work but honest work!

Best thing is so far nothing on materials as kindly neighbors donated a ton of hardcore and several slabs
Other neighbors donated more slabs too - the power of Fb on a new build site.

Thanks to Mrs S and the owners Billy n Chloe for mucking in too

Just completed a replacement deck under canopy area for wonderfully generous clients and a pleasure to work for.

It involved ripping up the old deck and base, and replacing with new base and deck boards but it had to be almost exactly the same height for a wind break.

The clients chose some wonderful details with the angles in “picture frame”

First photo is finished article, others show old deck.

I’m sure many glasses of wine will be enjoyed on here
