    For something like the creteprint, multiprint jobbies, what sort of rough cost you looking at for a standard drive?

    anyone?

    £60-£70 per sq metre - so a typical 60sq metre drive around £4k

    cheers @bobmunro

    will do Stonemuse, but without having any idea didn't want to waste anyone's time. Can't really afford anything but our dirty old crazy paving is crumbling apart almost daily, is more weeds than stones and looks like an awful patchwork after Thames Water (legally apparently) went to town on it last year. Its actually dangerous, so something needs to be done and I'm getting fed up with tinkers knocking and seeing a potential opportunity.

    We had Creteprint do ours. It was good for a few years but then started to crack and lose it's colour in places.

    It was then like trying to get an audience with the Pope to get them to come back and re-do it. Kept promising next time they were in the area etc etc and eventually did so but not to the same standard.

    Was gonna say the gear is relatively cheap if you're looking at doing it yourself. I'm putting resin floors in my kitchen, bathroom and wc

    do they look wet forever or is that just because they've been washed?

    I always thought driveways were a cash only industry.

    Multiprint did ours and next doors, large shared drive, and it still looks good after a few years.

    I've recently had mine done by Multiprint and would recommend them. Top job, and they even helped install the fence posts at no extra cost.
    I always try to support local business. The owner's from Bexley.

    £60-£70 per sq metre - so a typical 60sq metre drive around £4k
    Just dug out the invoice. Our drive is reasonably big and cost 3.6k.

    @AFKABartram if you want some pics, let me know your email.

    Having got 3 different quotes now for resin, its absolutely out of the question. Our front is roughly 15 x 10m and at over £100 sqm, its going to cost a small fortune.

    That's the problem with you Spurs' fans - you all have bloody big mansions!

    I bet next door's in fear of you producing a compulsory purchase order - just so you can build an even bigger place.
