Day 10

Permeable block paving contractor

Laying of the permeable driveway paving blocks

Brushing in the permeable infill

The 3mm clean stone infill id brushed into the joints of the permeable driveway block paving units and a wacker passed over the top to vibrate the stone tight and iron out any minor high spots.

Recessed paving tray

One of two recessed paving trays is installed to the correct heights and levels, the tray is squared off to suit the laying pattern.

The tramp gets moved

This is a first, I've never experienced any onsite squatter parking a caravan on my unfinished works, I'm afraid this eye sore will be in most of my images from here on. I will ask the client that I return once the project has finished and they have moved in.

The entire permeable block paving surface is washed to remove the pink dust from the 3mm infill grit.

"We had an Etesia and it was nothing but trouble.  We now have a Kubota G231-HD-48 entering its 5th season, good as gold as long as you change the fuel filters twice a season."

"We tried a 328 high tip variant on demo. Seems like a proper tool. Expensive, but rightly so. Good wide grass chute because of the portal axle. Now on shopping list"
