Laying on perculating / draining base:
- Remove topsoil until solid subsoil is reached. To ensure good drainage we
recommend grading the subsoil to a slight incline to force underground
drainage.
- For long path runs, a suitable drainage system (ie French Drain) may be
required, running adjacent to the path.
- Fill in with clean layer of gravel type material to required thickness and
compact in layers as necessary.
- Place blocks on gravel / sand bed and facilitate laying by using additional
shaping system (kerbing) to create a firm semi-lattice bond.

Laying on solid subsoil:
- Make sure there is sufficient drainage in the existing solid subsoil - if not
provide drainage by trenching, piping etc where neccessary.
- Place blocks on a gravel or sand bed and facilitate laying by using
additional shaping system (kerbing) to create a firm semi-lattice bond.
