    Re Laying a drive on clay - trying to locate a heavy duty mesh underlay, water permeable, that is layed after excavation and before scalpings are laid. Allows water to drain through but keeps scalpings in place and helps prevents the drive sinking away. Used it several years ago and drive in good shape, but can't seem to find the same material. Recommendations?

    Where did you find the heavy duty mesh underlay before? Perhaps if you directly contact a local supplier they'll be able to help locate what you've used previous.
