[Nigel Walker]

Majority of our work is Block Paved Driveways. We also do flagged patios and general hard landscaping work
For Walling and Fencing we sub-contract to tried and trusted people as it then leaves us free to lay drives - which is where we make the most money !
Have not been templted to diverse into Home Maintenence etc as we get more than enough work coming in for driveways
We do offer a pressure washing service, but find that we dont make nowhere near as much money from this as laying drives so we are now sub-contracting the pressure washing !!
Even when sub-contracting, I am personally involved in every job.
I used to do the whole Building Services thing, but 7 years ago decided to concentrate just on Paving. It was a very wise decision that has paid huge dividends.

weatherstruck or some may call it birdsbeak, basically a struck joint and not ironed or swept in.
