Excavation to formation, sub base, bedding screed, block, granite and natural stone paving, setts, kerbs, edgings and steps. Tonbane delivered the external works at Waltham Forest Town Hall, Osier Way in Leyton and Imperial College, so the setting out and the stonework on all three were ours.
Dig to formation, proof roll, crushed stone sub base to the specified thickness and a bedding screed laid to the falls that the finished surface actually needs.
Block paving, granite paving and setts, Purbeck and other natural stone slabs, laid to the pattern and the joint width on the drawing, with the cutting done properly at the edges.
Kerb lines set out on string and level, edgings haunched, and steps and thresholds formed so the risers are consistent rather than nearly consistent.
Work delivered on schemes like Waltham Forest Town Hall and Imperial College, where the finished surface is the thing the client sees every day and the setting out has nowhere to hide.
Block paving, granite paving and setts, and natural stone including the Purbeck stone slabs at Waltham Forest Town Hall. The sub base and bedding are part of the same package, which is why the finished levels hold.
Yes. External works and paving are often taken as a standalone package on a scheme where the frame is already up, and that is exactly what the Osier Way and Imperial College contracts were.
Off the drawing and off instrument, with the kerb lines, levels and joint layout set before the first unit goes down. On a public realm job the setting out is the job, because every visitor sees the result at walking pace.
Where a supply is available, yes. Matching existing material is a procurement question as much as a laying one, so it is worth raising it at tender rather than at the point of laying.
