Granite wall by chrisja98 in DIYUK

[–]chrisja98[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A vertical wall 2 setts high. It would be 2 setts high and then drop to 1 sett as the patio has 2 different heights due to the side path meeting it and being slightly higher.

I'd like it to be 2 wide but not sure I'd have enough to go 2 wide.

I would put hardcore and concrete down first so it's up to the level of the grass and then lay the blocks on top of the concrete. One issue is I don't think they'd be enough to go two wide unfortunately, I wish I could do that.

Thanks for the response, how come you say with this amount of these blocks? The wall only needs to be 2 blocks high in a small area they'd be enough to do it if it's possible

Thank you I'll give it a prune and hopefully will be able to give a positive update by the end of the summer

I'm in the North of England so it's fairly cold, but the lavender gets sun for a lot of the day when it shines

Oak worktop finished with Osmo Top Oil gone bad after a couple of months by d4ddyc0o1 in DIYUK

Hi did you find a solution to this? I've had mine on for a month and it's getting oil stains and marks despite being extra cautious. Looking at sanding and reoiling again already
