Going to try using a 15lb mallet and board, as it has to be done this week and nobody has a whacker plate spare. Its such a small area that im doing that hipefilly it should be fine.

Excellent and highly instructive video with very clear and logical explanations. May I please ask a question? I need to cover a much smaller area and plan to use prefabricated concrete slabs readily available at do it yourself stores. Each slab measures 40cm long, 20cm wide and 4.5cm height and weighs about 7.5kg. The whole projects requires no more than 6 of these slabs (maybe only 4). Would you recommend using the exact same base (foundation) principles as illustrated in the video or can the design be simplified? Thank you

Thanks for the video which is very helpful. Can I lay the sandstone slabs in December? The temperature will be 4 - 8 C next week.

Thanks. Just wondering why there is a no damp proof membrane?

Hi - Great video. Thank you. When applying the slurry - must it be wet (ish) when laying? - Can I paint a few slabs first which may dry before? - Would be grateful if you could let me know. Cheers.

Do you need a geo grid if building a patio on an already made and set raised level? We are adding a patio to an area that has a geo grid shed base already installed

Interested to know why you didnt seal the sandstone. I know some sweat by sealing natural stone whereas others prerfer not to...

When I last laid a patio, I did 150mm sub base and 100mm laying bed, that was my first time though and I've heard I might have gone a bit overboard, and I'm due to do a larger patio in the next couple of months, would you say 100mm sub base and 40mm is absolutely fine for a patio to last ten years or more? It would certainly help keep costs down on materials for my 35m2 patio.
