A good point that it can be tricky to figure where property borders and areas are. Saw small gravel in the intro and wondered if the paving had been done with that. Apparently so. Nice it worked in your favor as far as supplies and weather. You said (permeable paving) was rare and in this case, it was side-by-side with sanded paving. There were absolutely huge joints at 16:58. Artwork and skill meet, 18:46 was a neat Grime Line. This seems to have a lot of hidden small variables, but you appear to be enjoying figuring out solutions. Turned-out nicely.

Spot on job Nick, sadly though, you're not 99.9% right about the block being permeable, you're 100% right. It became in the late 90s/00s when they decided to build large housing estates on green belt land and flood planes and permeable block was an efficient way to drain water to the large soakaways that they also started adding. Excellent job bud. Perfect result 👌

Wow that was definitely a 10 mate. Those white spots are really tough. I have a few here on a stone wall that I always believed were impossible to get away. Seems like I need to try harder 😅 I really wonder if you let customers sign off for own risk or whatever if anything might get 'damaged'. Here in Norway with all the freezing and all the you could suddenly encounter concrete that is very weak. In that case you might for example have some spots where some damage might happen even if you make the best of it. How do you insure yourself you won't get some crazy claim and have to replace the entire driveway? Or what if you hit say a door with very old weak paint and a bit would flake off. And they demand you to repaint the entire door. Is this ever any problem? I am going to start doing this myself so that's why I wonder. Don't worry, I'll stay here in Norway and am not planning to make any videos either so no competition 😉😎
