Default Liquid Limestone/decking

G'day guys

Anyone here had liquid limestone and decking done at their place? and if so experiences/cost per sqm?

The limestone is for the driveway and the decking is for the alfresco

Cheers

Nico

try exquisite limestone, done my driveway thru them...top bloke and really good price. Cant remember $ per sqm but the whole driveway (and she is pretty big) + some footpaths to the house + seal and clean was about $4k. I did nothing, they prepared the site and etc

your more than welcome to come and have a look at my driveway...i'd say it's around 50-60 sqm but the little footpath to the house is quite complex (roundabout sort of thing) so he gave me a real good price for it

I am a DIY dunce and I've done the decking on 2 of my houses now, can send u some pics if u like. It's a piece of piss. It took me just over a day. I downloaded some info from Bunnings and went from there. But if you've got the cash and can't be fucked doing it then get someone in.

yup leon designed the whole thing for me and it looks very good. Everyone that comes to my place asks about it. Quick question mate, i do have a fine crack line running on the side is there anyway of fixing it? can hardly notice it so if it's troublesome i'll just leave it

Just leave it. The stuff is pourus anyways so it wont do any damage. Only reall way of fixing it is cutting into it about 30mm and about 15 - 20mm wide and filling it with sikaflex. Not worth worrying about.

If you were particularly anal and wanted to replace the panel it would never match up because of the differences in the mud. No fault of the installer.

cheers Brendon,

yeah Leon's defiantly not at fault there, it was my idea to narrow the passage between the driveway and a circle that runs around a tree in front of my house. Back than he said it'll probably crack (even though he chucked extra support in there) i didnt really care and even now i dont mind but if it was easy enough i would do it, if not...crack's a crack and who cares. Besides I'm sure one or two more will pop up when i get my hands on the prado and start driving up and down the driveway
