fr499y 0 Posted May 23, 2013 be interesting to see how it is in the wet. My grandparents had the same thing done years ago and its lethal! BUT technology and materials change over time Looks good though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gravelrash 0 Posted May 24, 2013 Looks great Lee Skelly ( still a member but too interested in his Stratos)had his done about 2 years ago and it had the joints absolutely no problems and still looks really good, I recently had my drive done but wasn't allowed printed concrete or butt block paving because of water run off council regs (and neighbours a pain), so I had to use permeable block (the water runs straight through with no run off) looks good but a more expensive way of doing things Its brilliant having no grass to cut isn't it!

haveugot1 0 Posted May 24, 2013 Thats very nice lee.Do u have to protect each year? Got a small blocked paved area by my front door,but dont want something slippy in the wet.Mikes blocking looks very nice to and permeable so the best of both worlds, but not sure about weeds growing through.Thats why the concrete mapping looks like the better option Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No grass or hedge still got the back lawn to deal with but I plan to down size that in the future @haveugot1 wrote:Thats very nice lee.Do u have to protect each year?
