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.

Energy-Saving Home Improvements From The Green Deal
From 28th January 2013 homeowners and tenants will be able to make energy-saving improvements such as internal wall insulation (of exterior walls) systems, external wall insulation systems http://youtu.be/7yU7TN_g6uM at no upfront cost through the Green Deal. The list of 45 improvements that qualify for this support also includes installing solar panels, new boilers and insulated or heated wooden floors.
From 1st October accredited advisers, from energy companies to leading retailers and alternative energy providers, will be available to survey individual homes, assessing the most effective improvements for that property.
The low-interest loan will be spread over periods of up to 25 years and collected via energy bills.
To qualify for the Green Deal finance the cost of any potential improvement will have to be matched by savings on energy bills. This is known as the "golden rule". So, if you want solar panels at a cost of £6,000 and the saving on bills is estimated at £6,000, over 10 years, then your repayments can be spread over that period. In theory, the improvement need not cost the homeowner anything.
