Nice work John, I've watched loads of your videos and admire you eye dor detail.... I would love to pick your brains on how to price up jobs, I know every job is different but I'm thinking of taking landscaping up as a career change.

[@GreentopLandscapes]

thank you

[@cathalmacfadden80]

looks great. Shame about the burned fence.

[@GreentopLandscapes]

Your right just an over sight but was taken care off

[@philipjames363]

Is the haunching for the artificial grass a concrete mix, or just 5.1 sand to cement ? Sharp sand if so or standard builders sand, last stages of my garden make over

[@GreentopLandscapes]

A concrete mix is better Philip

[@jimcharlton859]

Great job. Did you trim the grass to fit before glueing, or did you trim it after glue dried? Thank you.

[@GreentopLandscapes]

Yes I did

[@seanmurphy6196]

Great job, what porcelain tiles are they you have put down.?

[@GreentopLandscapes]

They Are Planks from a supplier in Cardiff Sean

[@scotthamilton9191]

Am good at my job landscaping but wow shithot buddy Al be steal some of your ideas bro

[@kevinredgewell7179]

Really enjoy your vlogs learned a lot about porcelain slabs. Yours is top quality work. Are the small black 75 mm edging slabs special for external work. Can't appear to find a stockist.

[@GreentopLandscapes]

Hi Kevin mate thank you for your comment, we actually cut them ourselves mate.

[@kenboon1478]

@@GreentopLandscapes what mix do you lay your porcelain slabs on ?

[@Alcatraz2k]

Beautiful! What tiles are they as they are exactly what we're looking for?

Banging work John boy, how long did it take start to finish?

[@GreentopLandscapes]

Hi there thank you, think it took 3 weeks because of the weather

[@teaformulamaths]

How do you make sure there is no water pooling?

Thank you for your reply would you recommend anywhere in particular to go and have a look At some

[@warrenjackson4178]

Nice one . But why didn't you replace those burnt gravel boards ?

[@GreentopLandscapes]

Great point, thats why I made this channel as I learn from many, thank you

[@GreentopLandscapes]

The fence was actually painted later by the client any way

[@OrbitalStereo]

Brilliant job guys👍🏻 Can you tell me if porcelain slabs can be laid apart and then put resin bound gravel between them?

[@GreentopLandscapes]

Hi John, thanks for your response, Personally I would not do this as water will coarse a problem under the paving.

[@OrbitalStereo]

Greentop Landscapes & Design Thank you, so is a different laying technique required for gravel and slabs together?

[@alishafahi4476]

Looks good but your timber decking is not properly secured in couple of years all will be twisted. Its good looking garden

[@GreentopLandscapes]

Hi Ali it will if its not i totally agree, stay safe my friend

[@scottbikerdude4337]

Could I ask where I can buy the brick edge from I can’t seem to find any ?? Many thanks.Scott

[@GreentopLandscapes]

I had to cut them myself sorry

[@prakashmakwana6907]

Fantastic work. Could you give an indication of what a project like this would cost?

[@GreentopLandscapes]

every project is different mate

[@kevinbaird7277]

I would price this with these materials at around £14500, £3k rip out, £5500 materials, £3300 labour with VAT.

Any recommendations on where to source porcelain paving please Jonny.?

Hi Jake, yes there are lots of places my friend, where abouts are you?

[@jakekillen7567]

Thanks for the reply, I’m in Exeter.

[@joelmartinez-jr1qs]

Kudos for the Video! Excuse me for chiming in, I am interested in your initial thoughts. Have you thought about - Saankramer Breathtaking Design System (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now)? It is a good one off guide for learning how to make money with landscaping minus the headache. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my mate got great success with it.

[@peterash9524]

First time asking a question on KZbin. How did you nail down the grass to the concrete what nails did you use @ Jonny?

[@peterash9524]

Just realised you said you glued it down 🙈

[@GreentopLandscapes]

No worries peter stay safe

[@JaZeClanOfficial]

How long did this project take?

[@GreentopLandscapes]

3. Weeks

[@JaZeClanOfficial]

@@GreentopLandscapes thanks for letting me know, don’t suppose you could do a video on quoting please I’ve been self employed for a while now but sometimes have difficulty quoting. And sometimes the job isn’t worthwhile

[@hclandscapes]

What do you use to glue the artificial grass down to the concrete?

[@GreentopLandscapes]

An Aquatic glue from Enviro

[@davehamer5486]

Great job. Shame they wanted fake grass.

[@GreentopLandscapes]

I get you mate

[@samstewart2855]

Terrible. Grass is far to high against edging. Big lip on it, would not be happy with this finish.

[@GreentopLandscapes]

Its so that it feels right under foot, recommendation from the Manufacturer's is !0 to 12 mm and you can not feel the edge of the paving.

[@tolbi1415]

how can you call this a "garden", there is not one living organism. It's a desert devoid of life.

[@GreentopLandscapes]

If its what they want thats it.. we have since planted the borders.

Fair play you're very good better than Tommy walsh
