I wanted to type (expletive deleted) off ; but I couldn’t

Tempted to do this . Let the cement cure for a bit and then just a few lines of grip fill on the cement . Then bed it .

Assume it’s ok to link to this http://ultimatehandyman.co.uk/forum1/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=48486&start=30 The mods then locked it ! (expletive deleted)ing talking about foam on copings . Here we have to all go mental for hundreds of pages before it gets locked 😂

No wonder some people ‘bed’ them with expanding foam . It is tempting to sit it on packers nice and level and then just foam underneath- but that would be a bodge ….

My smugness ended today . I got up properly to look at my cast concrete with a spirit level …. It wibbles and wobbles around . It’s not level . So I embedded frame packers in cement at the low levels so that my spirit level shows level between them .Now when I bed the copings ( I think these biggies are maybe 60kg each ) they will sink . So I will put packers on the wall and cement around them to the level . Assumption is coping will only drop so far until it hits packers and cement. Someone say this is a good idea please 😁👍

No understanding… speeky Engrish ??

Ok ok , I’ll forget “ wet & forget “ ( though the product name is the best ! ) . Ordered the boringly named bostik “ mortar and brick cleaner “

Yeah but mines called “ wet & forget “ - reminds me of school

You dirty (expletive deleted)er

Looking at this type of thing on Amazon ; not sure it it’s right for the job though …

Following on from my other post . Some very dirty quoins ! . Pressure wash won’t touch it - any way to clean them up a bit ? Secondly my shuttering leaked a bit over my wall . Some ‘ smeary ‘ cement on it . Brushing it when dry helped a bit - but a recommended product to clean it up a bit appreciated.

There ! Certainly not level ( maybe 10mm deviation ) but a lot better .

I need to do this also and was initially going down the pedestal and tile route . Thickness of tiles required and lots of cuts make it a pita for me . Decided instead on pedestals with engineered decking .

Bit like a busy road in the week . Lots of traffic and noise . Now the forum feels like the same road but on a Sunday .

Didn’t ignore you - just forgot 😁 I only ignore @epsilonGreedy ; oh look ; he’s disappeared; strange that ….

It pissed down once I finished . It’s run . Hope it brushes off the stone work !! 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Sbr on coping underside ? . All on a thin bed of mortar . or add sbr to the mortar mix ?

Robot mower for certain !

I’ll leave it until Monday to fully cure . Take off the shuttering . Pick off foam . Knick any high bits out . Stick a level on it - won’t be perfect , but will easily do . @Onoff had faith ! 🤣😁👍

Does look top dollar

Goodnight gentlemen Good morning ladies …

You will ascend into heaven for such joyous believe . Or you’ll be laughed out of town if it fails .

🙄 @Onoff you know in your heart of hearts what you must do …. Get planning and spend the rest of your life building a proper house . It is your destiny young skywalker !
