I am looking to have a new path across a pebble area in my garden and currently I am considering block paving and pattern imprinted concrete. Does anyone have some advice or past experience with these over a longer period of time? Ideally, it should be a long-lasting solution to be kept for several years to come. I have heard that imprinted concrete can crack and split over time due to use and erosion – is this the case, and if so, are there any reasonable preventative measures I could take?

I have stone steps up to my front door (it’s a Victorian terrace). They were jet washed over the summer. Since then I have noticed a leak in my cellar, underneath where the steps are. Do I need to “seal” the steps in any way to try and stop this. I think they are either limestone or sandstone - either way they look porous, with lots of little holes in them.
I wanted to re paint my front doorstep that is outside but have no idea what paint to get. It's that old red brick/tile stuff and it needs updating
