These seem reasonably priced unless you know cheaper 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellow Bear Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 Used a similar product under grass, just laid on flat lightly tamped soil . raked in soil and seeded. Works fine for parking a car on and mowing over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulinlincs Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 I used them as a base for an office I built in my garden. Easy to use placed on grass and filled with gravel then built a timber frame on top. Been down 2 years now and absolutely fine. 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moondoggy Posted March 2, 2023 Report Share Posted March 2, 2023 (edited) I have used lots of those particular ones, only bought mine off Amazon. Made an area for a two ton caravan by doing about four inches of hardcore, then a couple of inches of MOT Type One. Lay weed fabric supplied with grids followed by the grids, then filled with stone chippings. Also did a large patio are without the hardcore, just Type One. Here, the left hand side just needed completing. Edited March 2, 2023 by moondoggy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoBodyImportant Posted March 2, 2023 Report Share Posted March 2, 2023 In the states we use tires on hills to keep gravel from washing out. Cut the tire in half and you get two sections per tire. It also works great for creek crossings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Centrepin Posted March 5, 2023 Report Share Posted March 5, 2023 Wow. I stopped using fleabay because of the poor delivery service and of course the scams. Looks like you found a genuine seller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
