Might even go 30mm for alfresco will need to measure gap from alfresco door to slab. Looking for white or light silver Thanks for the link have looked at Stone Wholesales but no prices yet still saving. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to redo my pool surround. The sandstone pavers were there when we bought the place. The foundation is about 20cm of compacted sand and the pavers keep moving. Trying to work out the best way of settling the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rednose RNS10S Donating Members 2,229 Member For: 18y 4m 17d Gender: Male Posted 16/02/17 07:26 AM Share Posted 16/02/17 07:26 AM (edited) Only way to do it properly is: Option 1: Fence out, pavers off. Concrete slab dowelled into pool and then pavers straight on top of new slab. Option 2: Fence out, pavers off. Buy a good quality mod wood and deck it the same height as the coping paver. Option 3: Fence out, pavers off. Concrete slab dowelled into pool, same height as the coping paver, diamond cut in squares or diamonds and spray-crete it like this Edited 16/02/17 07:27 AM by rednose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Work out cost per m2 for what you want done. I think the travertine is best. It's not harsh on your feet, looks great and easy to maintain. Astro Tur? Some of that stuff these days look real.

This is the side facing the house. I put the folding doors and the deck in about 4-5 years ago. Putting in a level deck with the coping pavers will probably be the cheapest option and might suit the back of the house. Although the more I look up diamond cut concrete its hard to surpass.

Cost was to much but I really like the timber look around the pool. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
