Timelapse Of Our Driveway Being Done by Abbey Paving

[@matt420740]

It blows my mind how the OP has genuinely convinced himself anyone critical of this work is "jealous" of his driveway.

I'm a paver and membrane is to stop migration of sub grade into sub soils not just for weed prevention, membrane is pointless if your trying to stop weeds if it's dug out deep enough and 150mm of compact Mot , most people don't know this but most weeds come from the air seeds settling in gaps in the paving add sunlight & water and bingo , people overeacting about this job it's ok, the one thing I would say is your not meant to seal the job for 3 months to allow the salt (efflorescence) to shed out of the block otherwise the sealant wouldn't last 2 minutes

I’m a paving contractor of 20 years. Can’t really comment on subbase as it’s impossible to tell from here. Only complaint is improper edge restraint and crossover detail. Plate compactor is fine for domestic driveway use. Looks like a bomag of around 65kg.

[@peterrimmer4103]

Ever had that sinking feeling, well having watched this my heart sank.

[@kierongibson4107]

Shoddy driveway, it might look ok to someone who doesn’t have a clue but it’s a poor job, haunching edgings With no concrete underneath is a big no no, tipping wast from last job in sub base is wrong and there wasn’t much of a base laid,

[@stephmc70]

Kieron Gibson and no ground stabilising fabric Doh!

[@stringsgb8833]

Yeah I was thinking this. It's looks nice but for a driveway it had very little sub base and didn't see any membrane go under either?

[@JamieBhoy91]

Last jobs off cuts in the drive ain’t a bad thing I’ve seen us rip up an old drive way and use the old blocks as a sub base below the actual sub base it only adds strength to your ground works when wacked properly, a standard family car drive way should have a minimum 100 mm sub base for a heavier vehicle/commercial is a minimum of 200mm

hard core is usually used a layer down wack it then a second layer down whacked again then sand this was cutting corners at its finest

[@weareguardians7384]

Looks pretty, but on the important part, the Base it's sat on, not enough excavation of soil levels or installation and compaction of type 1 crushed limestone, no aco drainage for pitch of driveway, edge bonding works? etc. Not criticism, observation with head knowledge. Check your guarantee term and conditions for later problems in these things. Kind regards

[@paulwilko10]

Appreciate the advice. No issues so far 👍

[@thumperman8490]

Just park a Range Rover on it for a week or two and see what happens, the sub-base was way too shallow....sad that people pay top dollar for a professional service and the guys doing the job / running the company have no appreciation for the engineering aspects involved. No water drainage allowed for, and the edging will more than likely fail as the edge stones are simply sitting on the sand substrate and held in place by the concrete on the edge.

[@andrewhollis6665]

@@stgray35 glad I'm not on my own. I think similar has been done on my mother's drive as it's sinking where the car wheels sit and you can pick up the edging bricks as they've got no haunches/shoulders or whatever. Stone needs wackering down first then your sand does to then screed it level for the blocks then again when blocks have been laid before brushing with sand. I can't see where it meets the house whether there's a drain channel in

[@stgray35]

Andrew Hollis I grew up around this industry, my dad had his own civil engineering firm for 45 years, and often helped him out. A friend recently had a resin drive done, and what a fuck up, their drive slopes slightly towards their house, but the idiots put the drainage halfway down the drive and nothing up by the house, and used 2” of type 1 before laying it it freezing conditions. So now when it rains heavily, their drive floods by the front door and the resin is now sinking in places , like where the cars mark, he is now taking them to court for a refund so he can get it done properly.

[@BarriosGroupie]

Apparently, membranes are not needed in the vast majority of driveways: www.pavingexpert.com/faqmembr.htm _In the vast majority of light-use constructions (patios, driveways, footpaths, etc) there is absolutely no need for a membrane to be placed between sub-base and the bedding layer: it achieves almost nothing, as a well-selected sub-base material will have what we call a 'tight' or 'close' finish, that is, there will be very few, if any, significant voids. Further: when constructing a sub-base, the good contractor will 'blind' the surface with fines or grit sand to ensure that there are no nasty voids that could gobble up the bedding material._

Very nice drive! Most of the drives here in the US are concrete, but my smallish driveway is about 4 times the size of yours. I see some people are saying the driveway will slip and slide; I am unfamiliar with UK dirt, but the compaction on the underlayment seems adequate, and if the drainage is good everything will be ok.

Yes , once all depths and the use of Type 1 MOT is used, the Compacted with whacker plate it isnt going anywhere 👍🏻

[@randomone3093]

Looks nice finished, as you had it on camera did you ask them why they dumped rubbish from another job under your drive, and are there bits missing off the video? As I saw 2 tonne(at most) of mot get dropped but on your drive that would only give 50mm which surely isn’t enough or is it because of the ground they needed less? just curious about the site prep as plan to get mine done soon and every quote I’ve had mention 150mm of mot sub base which you definitely didn’t have so hoping you could let me know what they said about that. Looks nice though.

paul wilkinson well we saw no evidence of sufficient depth of type1 subbase and never saw on your video sufficient compacting off subbase. All off which are crucial to stop ground sinking.

And I assume your parking a car on driveway not a Sinclair C5.

I'm not an expert on block paving but I know the principles of good groundwork. Also researched this quite a lot as we are having our driveway done at the moment by a company who were given the job on the basis of reputation locally but also on the detailed information of how their drives were constructed. They also did next door's drive so we saw how that was done. Currently excavated to a depth of 9 inches and weed control membrane laid over the entire site. This looks really shoddy by comparison. It may be OK for a few years but will eventually start to move.

[@masonringbinder684]

I have placed two links below which set out the minimum specification for the installation of this type of wearing surface. If you compare it to the work that was carried out you should see that it falls short of these specifications. Pay attention to the substrate depth and the total lack of concrete under the perimeter of the paving. As to selling your property, I made no mention of it. www.marshalls.co.uk/homeowners/assets/pdfs/driveway-garden-installation-instructions/standard-block-paving-installation-details.pdf www.kilsaraninternational.co.uk/uploaded/53199bbbe60f19.58440664.pdf

[@paulwilko10]

Mason Ringbinder all you have done is supplied me with links to other companies that do the work. Show me something that actually has some clout or am I missing something? I mention selling my house because of as you say it could be condemned, then surveyors would see that moving forward if of course you are correct.

[@masonringbinder684]

Yes you are missing something. Lets start with "condemned"; this refers to work carried out on your drive not meeting the require minimum installation standards and not the house. The link includes a PDF from Marshalls who manufacture paving blocks, although they are not the company who manufactured the blocks your contractor used, the code of practice for preparing the substrate will be the same. Forterra who manufactured the paving blocks you have in your drive (FORMPAVE) do not have such a PDF readily available. A surveyor would be unable to assess the depth of substrate used and lack of concrete around and under the periphery, unless of course he digs a trial hole. Your video reveals all of this and in that respect, has some "clout". Send it to Forterra and ask their considered opinion, especially if Abbey Paving is a Forterra approved contractor. It would be interesting to see if their opinion agrees with mine. All the best Mason

I also like the way they drove the machine on next doors drive.

don't park your car there you might find it in plutonic

So, they tip material from another job into YOUR driveway. Not taken away and disposed of properly = COWBOYS. They don't excavate deep enough to allow at least 6" (150mm) of MOT Sub-Base = COWBOYS. They don't properly compact the sub-base with a suitable compactor plate or vibrating roller = COWBOYS Abbey Paving don't lay your edging kerbs on concrete and thus prevent them moving = COWBOYS. None of those guys had the appropriate Personal Protective Equipment required =COWBOYS. The Local Authority path was not properly patched at the edge and materials were left on the public path with no regard for the general public = You get the drift. All.- in- all those guys are cowboys and give proper, registered installers a bad name. I'd give that driveway a maximum of 1 year before it moves and loses it's structural integrity.
