Great Project, Great Location
Here I built and rendered a block wall to help extend the patio area around the swimming pool. This also created storage area and inserted a steel door for access.

Paved Driveway
In this project I was asked to stone pave a driveway:
1. On the first day the whole drive was cleared and concrete laid
2. When dry, I then laid the stones onto a sand/cement base
3. Finished off by pointing all the stones

Block Tiled Floor
In this project I had to create a floor using old style block tiles in a herringbone pattern:
1. All the rubble was cleared and the area levelled
2. I put down a membrane before laying a concrete base
3. When dry, I began laying the block tiles onto a sand base (as shown in photo)
4. After all the blocks were laid and grouted I applied 2 coats of sealant oil

Sundeck
This is how I created a tiled sundeck:
1) Built tiled steps for access
2) Rendered & painted the supporting wall facing the swimming pool
3) Screeded the base for the sundeck
4) Laid the floor tiles on the screeded base
5) Fitted the balustrade to enclose the sundeck

Pebble-Dashed Front Of House
Parts of the pebble-dash coat on the front wall of this house had "blown". I repaired and re-pebble-dashed these damaged areas before the whole of the front of the house was painted.
