- About Me:
- I love my job, what can be better than a landscaper, landscaping gardens in the outdoors of our beautiful countryside in Sussex and Surrey. In particular designing and installing gardens. I love the varied aspect of my everyday projects. Each day brings new experiences and visions. For instance, one day we can clear a garden, the next we are setting out for a new garden, or completing another project.
I love my wife and my dogs, in that order - generally!

Update of this original blog.
We have completed several projects since Bognor and have used on a few occassions resin based jointing compound from Ncc Inaction, http://www.nccinaction.co.uk/services/default_item.php?id=11. A superb material, where you soak the area to be pointed, using water; then mix the compound together, then using a squeegee spread the material over the paving and into the joints. Then using a soft brush, sweep the excess off and job done. This type of product does leave a… Continue

I have had no business from either site despite many enquiries. It is still worth keping a presence for brand awareness though.
How is your business doing?
The only 4-5mm quartz we can get is also called horticulture grit. Is that the stuff?

Daniel Kaye said… - Hi Stuart,
I was looking at your post on Resin Bound Aggregate and i'm interested to learn more. It looks fairly straight forward...did you find this? Also where did you buy your materials from and did you mix the aggregate in a mixer or is it mixed some other way. Any information you can give would be much appreciated. Also i'm based in the north so no competition to you ;-)
Thanks, Dan

I will not be making a decision until September. There is a position that should be coming up then, if our local TMOs can get their act together. If it all falls through and I'm still unemployed then I will look at it seriously.
