Block paving nightmare... Please help
Comments

How about waiting for the job to be completed before condemning it as substandard?
The contractor is under no more obligation to tell you that he is a traveller than he is to tell you he is a Methodist: what is the relevance? You've already seen other examples of his work and they were satisfactory.
How much have you already paid for the work done?No free lunch, and no free laptop

You've been had by cowboys.
Do not pay them ANY money, until you are happy.
Block psving needs a hard core base, then sand then the block paving.
I suggest you start taking photos.
If the cowboys are travellers you have no chance what so ever of taking them to court.Breast Cancer 100 miles Oct 22 100/100miles

I would just like to apologise for my rudeness is not replying to each and everyone of you.
You see I have just been told off my a member for not updating the thread.
I didn't expect to come on to a forum for help and advice or just to vent and be greeted with such contempt.
Despite having a baby not long ago and going through a court case regarding the above, I should be attached to my phone at all times.
So apologies again but my sincere thanks for your repliesThis is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -

If you've promised a driveway trader £4000 and you've got no background on them, I'd be ringing the police for advice ASAP.0
