I have some "stepping stones" set in to my lawn: 9x18 cms and also a
couple of paving slabs : 60x75 cms which have sunk.
Is it better to relay them on "blobs" of cement rather than just
trying to get a sand base nice and level. I am think if large blobs
of cement are used it will be easier to get them level by tapping them
down with a rubber mallet. (The paving slabs take no vehicles)
I will probably be at odds with everyone else but for any paths across
grass I just use soil to level and lay, reason being it's easy to change
your mind and move things, yes I sometimes have to re level a slab now
and again but as the worms seem to raise soil levels anyway, its useful
to be able to do it quickly and cheaply without making a mess.
Glad you agree Charlie, I said that when the item was first posted,
anything more is just making unnecessary work, and inuring cost.
