Outside a new building (PMC Construction offices) in Cosham near the train station, the builders have done probably the worst job ever in laying paving blocks.
The builders started laying a border of dark grey blocks to edge the red blocks, then when they had got about 80% complete, they just stopped.
As well as that, they used whole blocks near the black block edging and also by the metal drain, and filled the gap with small pieces.
Would have been better to put the small pieces next to the drain, like every other builder!
The same builders aren't to hot on curves either.
But it gets worse!
Here they start with one style of edging, then switch to another. Plus they cut one of the metal drains to an angle but leave the other uncut, which means the angle is very noticeable.
Any normal person would have cut both so that the transition between the two would have been visually more pleasing.
The site manager for the project should frankly be sacked. A DIY home owner would have done a better job.
It's not just Cosham where we have bad workmanship. Here are examples in Waterlooville where a utilities company couldn't be bothered to replace the stones and just resurfaced with tarmac.
Some examples of how it should be done...
