This Norwich homeowner had extensive porcelain paving around their property, that had to be taken up and replaced as the build-up and installation was inadequate, the contractor responsible had disappeared. This time, they did a lot of research and carefully checked references, then selected Totally Landscapes, to replace it with traditional Indian Sandstone paving for a permanent solution. Confident in their design and build skills, Totally Landscapes were keen to find an equally durable solution for the joints to accommodate vehicular traffic and de-icing salts, and be fully resistant to jet washed as frequently as necessary, to keep the paving looking good long-term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having seen several impressive site application videos of GftK vdw 850 plus featured in professional paving groups on social media, they had been considering GftK for some time, but sat on the fence due to the slightly higher initial cost. However, with more than 350m2<\/sup> of quality Indian sandstone paving to point and complete on time before Christmas, and with the high risk of wet weather, they decided to take no chances and contacted NCC Streetscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NCC Streetscape recommended GftK vdw 850 plus, the unique, 2nd<\/sup>-generation, epoxy paving joint mortar, which is also the only truly wet-weather solution.  This is also very easy and fast to use, non-staining, and fully resistant to traffic and jet-washing. After successfully completing the job in double quick time, Totally Landscapes realised that any higher initial product costs are far outweighed by the ease of use and time saved, not to mention the security of completion on time, and long-term durability for the owners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
