Installation of paving slabs

Installing paving slabs on a parking space in Ashbourne

Installation paving slabs on driveways in front of the house

In the city of Ashbourne, a client wanted me to create a parking space for their car at home and install pavement tiles there.

First, I broke up the old concrete base, then cleared the area for the future parking space. After that, I compacted the area for the tiles.

While preparing the base, I discovered that the curb connecting the adjacent plot had shifted from its place. Therefore, I installed a reliable concrete base under the curb.

Following the technology for installing street pavement tiles, I poured layers of gravel and sand 10 centimeters thick. This construction will help the tiles withstand the weight of a car without any issues. After compacting it all well, I proceeded to install the pavement tiles.

Lastly, for decoration purposes, I laid out a square pattern of dark-colored pavement tiles in the center.

The customer was very satisfied with the work I had done.

Site preparation in Drogheda for installation of paving slabs

Garden preparation
Formwork assembly
In the city of Drogheda, I was hired to prepare a site for laying sidewalk tiles.
I used a small excavator to level and compact the area.
After that, I installed formwork and poured concrete around the perimeter of the site.
I filled the area with a layer of gravel and compacted it well.
As you can see in my video, the result is a platform with perfect 90-degree angles.
The platform is ready and waiting for the installation of the sidewalk tiles!
