    Why wasn't the cement under the blocks wet or why wasn't the cement under the blocks wetted after the blocks were laid??? Surely when there stepped on or any weight is placed on them they'll just sink into the powdered cement?

    I need to lay 10 bricks in a straight line in grass. I will dig a line to put the bricks into. How deep should I dig and simply placing dry ready mix concrete is enough? Or should I use sand and cement mix to place the bricks onto?

    Hi Tony, I have some concrete edging that I want to use to hold in MOT type 1 on a patio I'm DIYing. Patio will be higher than the lawn, so wanted to use the concrete edging soley to contain MOT 1 went I compact it, and so it wont start crumbling away. Edging is 150mm in width. How deep would the concrete base need to be for it to sit in? I ideally I just need the 100mm of it pretuding for the mot sub base of 100mm. Woukd you recommend using a dry mix for it to sit in, then wet for haunching etc? And what mix sand / concrete to use? Thankyou in advance for any advice you could give.

    This is the best edging video on KZread. One question though, you put dry concrete down as the base but it was never wetted, correct? Then wet concrete on top. Wouldn't it be enough to do what I've heard called a "dry pour" where you put the concrete down as a base, add the stones then wet the whole line lightly so that base concrete hardens over time?

    I set a border edge of upright 150x50x914 concrete slaps exactly as tont descibes…. Turned out beautifully. Ive haunched them too. BUT, im a bit stuck… i want to put a mowing edge inside of the edging kerbs. Do I set them on a dry mix or wet mortar bed them like the paving slabs that will eventually go inside the mowing strip border?

    Total waste of time, hasn’t been compacted enough as soon as you start driving on it , it will slowly start to dip again.

    And in Dallas Texas they just heap up the asphalt, way over the top, and that’s it. It dries to a massive speed bump in the middle of a street. The idiots in Dallas think it’s okay, cause the road workers keep on doing it this way for years, and no one ever corrects the way they do their work. Absolutely pathetic repairs.

    The advice here to "push" the sealant with the roller to allow it to soak in and get coverage is outstanding and is exactly what I needed before I do this on my own patio. Thx
