I love watching skilled craftsmen, craftswomen work. It's a beautiful thing.

I love the fact that the brick is not perfectly square and it has a feel that it's been there forever. Just beautiful work.

It's not until you've laid cobbles do you really appreciate how tough a job it is, especially if you're on your own. Good work nice one.

Then you meet old 3rd choice cobbles (random stones with one worn surface) and you get to a next level in creative working.

It's so satisfying seeing work being done well.

Wow!!!! A lot of guard work really pays off. I've done this sort of thing, but in a smaller way. That's a back breaking project for sure. My hat is off to you!! If a person has never done it, they have no idea what a job it really is. Greetings from Texas, USA. :)

Fantastic. Glad I found this. The cleanup was great, too!

@@voodoomelons You are very welcome. I have a trivia question you can stump your friends and family with; "What is the Eastern most state, and the Western most state, and the Northern most state in the United States?" And the answer is, "ALASKA!" It's obvious we're the Northern most state, but we are also the Western most one and Eastern most one because of the Aleutian Islands! Also that's why we can see Russia from Alaska, because the Western most island is not too far away from the Russian coast.

This was worth watching just for the awesome techno tune! Great workmanship also! Wish I could remember the name of this song!

Beautiful..I'm in Canada and my brother in law was laying a sidewalk like yours but there were 3 different sizes of brick and he ended up with a hole so I moved some around and it turned out perfect and I finished the sidewalk for him and used every brick, none left over..I was about 50 then and had a lot of fun doing it.i'm 70 now and don't know if I could do that again now.

Beautiful. Looks like it has always been there. Nice job!

What a transformation! That entire area looks great!

Looking very beautiful good work❤❤❤

I just finished 90-100 square meters driveway three weeks ago. At the start i thought i'll never finish. Took me 12 days to finish. But at the end it felt great.

That’s very impressive progress! I laid around 15 m2 of granite cobbles (10x10x10 cm), which took me around one week (7 days). Takes more time to lay a pattern, though.

that is a hard work lads you’ve done a fantastic job imagine the old folks full of smiles.

Great job ,Glad to see there are still good quality tradesmen still to be found

I love both parts of backyard renovation.

Great job I have some stones like that, that are over a 100 years old from the roads in our downtown area. 👍

You sir are a hard worker, working even after dark. Good luck to ya mate.

This is a time lapse, I should imagine it took to a fair amount of time. The Cobbles are not an even depth. Thats why it takes so long.

Those stones are purdyyy

Really nice choice!!! That would be very expensive here in the US. Beautiful job! 😁👏👍😊👌

Superb job

Excellent Job on the walkway!!!... But I Truly think you should of Pressure Washed the Walls before laying the new walkway!!??... Jussayin'!!😉

This minecraft update is crazy

I used to lay them granite sets...backbreaking sometimes..good job though👍

My Papa used to say that brick layers were the honey bees of the human race. Third grade education, went to Canada then to America, paid cash for his home, his cars, sent the kids to Catholic schools, died at the age of 96 with a full head of white glorious hair and every tooth in his head. Plus his estate left $50 thousand to each surviving of his offspring. Laid bricks all his life. County Mayo men are the best!

Hi, this is amazing work! The grout and side stone really complements it! Please may I ask; what is the white stone at the sides - is that Limestone?

9-12mm Polar White The Polar white chippings are great for use on borders, ponds, pathways and more! They are a crisp white colour making them perfect to add brightness to your landscaping project. The polar white chippings are made from angular dolerite which has a natural sparkle and looks stunning when the sunlight hits. This product is most commonly used in garden borders and water features.

Lovely

Love it

Inspiring and the clear out too. Well done! Keep email coming! 🙂 Dan Ireland

Thanks for posting this video. So you secure the border cobblestone with cement, are you also using cement (dry cement) underneath the cobblestones for the interior?

@nofurtherwest3474

Жыл бұрын

Yeah I was wondering what materials he used. Looks like a type of sand on the base that is compacted, and cement on the exterior? I haven't seen that method before. Why not use cement or concrete on the entire base? I guess he's trying to lock in the border blocks? And then is the grout like a sand that is porous and loose or is it more like a mix that sets up hard/permanent?

Hello sir how are you this stone cutting process ?

What is a sett? Paving stone? Any particular kind? End result was crazy GORGEOUS-looks like a 400yr old cobblestone road.

@voodoomelons

Exactly, setts are semi-uniform blocks or cubes of stone. They can be half the size of the ones in the video, all the way up to five times larger.

What did you mix in the mixer? Just sand with regular cement, but dry? Thank you for your help

Yes sir it was a dry mix of cement and sand, ratios in the description.

For the edge pieces, did you just cement directly on top of the sand layer or did you dig them down a bit further before adding cement?

can you tell me what you put down for a base and what was the mix you set them in? Looks great nice job . Thanks

no it wont as its not plastic its a permeable material used correctly as it has been will stop any migration of the crushed stone into the subsoil whilst allowing water to pass through.
