Paving

[nod]

A friend was good enough to drop me his 3 ton digger yeasterday 

So I could get started prepping the drive 

We had planned for a 2 mtr rumble strip and most of the rest loose gravel 

As we have come in under budget 

We will pave most About 350 square metres 

I’m going to need a week off once I get all the drains and edges in 

[CC45]

I'd need a week to recover if I was to lay that much paving let alone a week to lay it all.

 

Good luck

Just a warning because I have known people who got it wrong.

 

It is better to go in a few hours a day or have an oppo if you are risking your back ... such a risk is not worth it.

 

Use the sack trolleys, knee pads and whatever equipment it needs.

 

And pay a man if you are dealing with any really heavy pavers.

 

I have a problem even when I am paying people stopping them from doing their backs ... despite repeated explicit instructions to not move 40kg or 60kg pavers or sheets of PB or OSB on their own etc. then they have a day off and it costs them money and delays my project.
