Quote

After looking into my previous quote for imprinted concrete i have decided against it so looks like its going to be blocks i have been quoted

supply and lay limestone MOT type 1 to a depth of 5" then lay Barleystone Tegular paving (60MM) total cost £5900 its is about 115 sq mts

I thin k this is a good quote also seen some of his work and looks to a good standard any advice

The MOT sub base should be 150mm minimum depth (6") other than that I would snatch his hand off if he can lay 115m2 for that amount of money

Very very cheap, maybe too cheap

it's all down to local costing's, the guy must be happy to work for that rate
standard blockpaving £65m i can make money using my 7.5t lorry to collect agregates and muck away,collect concrete for edges,
but probilly cant do it in other areas MSH

good luck to the contractor
as mark says he may have different overheads
also does that £5900 include VAT?

Maybe this cut throat competition is good for the local guy after all? £50 a m2 is doable, but the 'Doh' factor looms large if it goes pear shaped.

51 quid/m² for a Barleystone tumbled block in Stoke? Piscine whiff!
