My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

    Hi adauel, The driveway is made of a concrete decorative block. It was installed on a 75-100mm of limestone scalpings and then compacted.

    Does the concrete decorative block have a style name? Do you know the manufacture of the block and where it can be obtained?

    Hi Adauel, I stopped by the owners home and was told that decorative block can be purchased at most landscape stores. The homeowner expressed the importance of a thick solid base under the decorative block as he has experienced some heaving over the years.
