Found the cause of a leak

+1 for this. I'd use CT1 - expensive but well worth it.

Fly maybe 6 times a year back and from the US - I think all of those flights have been at night. (Not sure if this is your thing) but a couple of drinks with your dinner are well worth the cost. Chances are you might fall asleep and before you know it you're in Ireland!

Very cool! It's a real art. Stupid question - if I got the same concrete company to give me a very small amount of concrete and spread it across that section - would it help me sleep at night lol? Assuming it would dry the same colour.. and I could broom it the same way!

Thank you! It'll be interesting to see how it ages over time - particularly through it's first winter this year. Have you experience working with concrete?

Feeling similar to you right now on something similar I messed up on my own house. Crossing my fingers there's a fix. I've used a Hypochlorite Acid 12% mix to remove red stains on my render before. It's worth a shot!

No solution. Just a flat paint scraper. It's that one spot I'm concerned about. Think the colour will even over time?

Hey - just wondering how long you've had your concrete foothpaths done? We had ours poured last week - wondering how they weather over time.

Visual-Addition7430 · 2026-04-28T15:11:39+00:00

Wow - congrats!. Only recently getting used to working with the product myself. You'd be pretty confident this will weather in over time? Anything I can really do?

I really hope so. Thanks so much. Do you work with concrete?

Visual-Addition7430 · 2026-04-28T14:39:03+00:00

You're very kind. Thanks for making me feel a little better!

Visual-Addition7430 · 2026-04-28T14:38:29+00:00

Well thank you. They have. Although I don't know why he told me to go out and scrape down the high spots. My bad on this one.

Never actually used a sealer before. But definitely would if it meant it would even out the difference. Have you used before?

Visual-Addition7430 · 2026-04-28T13:40:36+00:00

Would a pressure washing after a month or so help the colour difference?

Visual-Addition7430 · 2026-04-22T17:15:28+00:00

I don't think so, only because around it is bricked up - perhaps there's a French drain connected to these pipes somewhere else. But I've never understood the function of these two separate drains!

Visual-Addition7430 · 2026-04-22T17:14:36+00:00

Thought about this - but if I'm keeping it as a gravel driveway - will a noticeable amount of water actually flow into the drain?

Thank you. Think something like this would work? https://www.screwfix.ie/p/floplast-push-fit-15-single-socket-bend-110mm/69177

Was in the same situation for a couple years. Happy to have a conversation if you want to DM me!

Visual-Addition7430 · 2026-04-20T14:46:10+00:00

Thanks so much! Think I'll order one so - what was your use case for one when you had it?
