WHAT IS CRAZY PAVING?

Crazy Paving has a unique quality and is never the same due to the random nature of the stones used; if you’re the sort of person that likes to stand out from the crowd & you want your garden to reflect this, you’ve picked the right paving! Crazy paving can also be a great alternative if you’re on a budget because it can be cheaper than purchasing paving slabs — two birds with one stone (excuse the pun).

HOW TO MEASURE CRAZY PAVING

Before you start measuring for your crazy paving it’s important to consider the type of garden that you have & where your paving will be placed. If you plan to place the stones in an area with a high traffic flow or around a lot of greenery such as trees & foliage it might be sensible to budget for a natural stone sealant too (this will save you from any problems or further costs in future!)

Once the preparation is out of the way & you’re settled on the design & layout you can begin measuring! You’ll need to measure the entire perimeter of the area where your Crazy paving will go. From these measurements you can then work out your area in square metres. Easy enough, right?
