Hi everyone,
thanks again for the advice here. So you can also follow what has happened, a little update:
* The metal lawn edges are placed on 10 cm of concrete + concrete wedge + 10 cm of compacted gravel (somewhat visible in the picture to the left of the metal edge).
* Filled up with gravel and the sand that was there before. Compacted several times. Unfortunately, the sand is not as permeable as hoped and has a certain "clayey" portion. I hope this does not backfire. I also laid water pipes and cables in the gravel right away.
* I started behind the house at the "path." The first 60x120 cm slabs lie on 5-10 cm of grit and grit bedding layers so that the slabs shift less against each other and do not crunch.
So far, laying is going quite well. I hope it stays stable like this.
Best regards
Lukas
Hey Lukas,
thanks for your feedback :) That already looks very good. We like the slabs. Have you been able to lay more in the meantime? Is the effort manageable? I also think the lawn edges are well solved. Back then, we went back and forth about this as well; there are certainly more than enough options - but in the end, the classic 8 cm curb stone was chosen anyway :)
Good work! Keep it up. Looking forward to more pictures. Especially of the terrace ;)
