I notice that you lay the wall edge slab (or spacer slab), then lay the rest of the row from the edging tile - then you lift and either relay the full wall-side slab, or remove and dig out the spacer slab. Is the reason for laying and then relaying/removing the wall side slab to enable you to use the spirit level to get the levels right, or some other reason?

I think the answer is to the question is. The last tile I lift and relay is only for levels I then lift it up to move it next to the last tile for the correct spacing hope that’s what you mean 👍🏴

Wow - great teamwork to produce that result! May I ask your advice regarding a 12 metre squared area that I’m going to pave using porcelain 1200x600x20 tiles… 1: The tiles (approx half) will need to be lifted in about a year because of an extension to the property which will overlap onto the proposed tiled area. Can porcelain tiles be laid on a bed of compacted mot1 with only sand on the top layer and grouted in with the flexible brush in grout? Sorry to all the experts who will probably be baulking at reading this….however, the tiles were expensive and I would like a solution that does the job but can also be moved at a later date. 2 - from the patio doors to the far end of the paving, the measured drop is 6 inches. To alleviate this, would you recommend a 1:60 fall ratio bringing it down about 2.5 inches and I’m thinking to use some 600x600 spare concrete pavers which can be cut in half to use as pin curbs around all the edges. Would sincerely appreciate some decent advice before I set forth with my spade!
@tidybrickslandscaping

Hi Brad thanks for watching my videos as for your idea laying the tiles on compacted MOT what I would suggest would be to lay the tiles on a cement bed but always a but. Lay the tiles on a semi dry mix of cement and do not prime the back of the tile and they should pop up relatively easy just make sure the cement is relatively dry so it can’t stick but will go hard enough to you allow you to level and walk on And yes use that flexible brush grout because it’s so easy to take out with a screwdriver anyways it’s basically a shit product otherwise. 👍🏴

@tidybrickslandscaping thanks for the reply fella - I'm looking at either spreading a SBR slurry over the existing patio steps ( they are cotswold slabs ) then spreading 20mm of sand cement spreading a layer of slurry on the bottom of the tile them leveling the tile or using a plastic support and doing away with the mortar - the steps are solid though I may have to trim the overhang with a grinder as I want to have the risers to fit flush to the step - I'm goin to have to make up a mix to attach the risers anyway so I'm not sure which will produce the best results

@@PhilM62 as long as the slurry is also a cement mix then yeh great it does work I’ve tested it I just drys quicker and it’s all trail and error regarding steps but as long as it’s primed it’ll work Good luck 👍🏴

@tidybrickslandscaping thanks mate - we had the lower half of the patio done in 2021 and upper section is just levelled stone my missus stopped me having a go at that until the interior of the house is finished ( weve only been here since 1992 😆) I'm going to do a composite deck on the raised section and its only 2 steps that need to be covered - so I've been hard at work studying any KZitem videos before I get stuck in - the problem is , is that you make it look so ridiculously easy - just waiting for this rain to sod off so I can have decent few days - that's typical South Wales for u but its been much worse than normal

Great job. Question about the drainage system. Does it drain back to 1 of the down pipes, via a pipe under the patio?
