Our brief was to create a weed-free surface that would be easy to maintain, as our customer didn't have time for gardening tasks, nor for weeding the existing block paving pathway. As always, the project started with the digging out and removal of waste.

 

 

Preparing the ground for concreting is a vital stage in the installation and can vary significantly from job to job. Some jobs may need shuttering and drainage and can have a dramatic impact on the price, in terms of time/labour (not to mention materials). On this occasion, however, it was very simple process of just stoning up the grounds.

 

  

Once the concrete has been been layered, screeded, coloured and floated in, the process of printing the concrete can begin. In the photo below, you can see us doing some hand tooling, an important part of constructing a pattern imprint concrete driveway or patio. It helps to achieve a realistic look to the chosen pattern, which, on this occasion, was Cheshire cobble.
