Hello people just a quick question about block paving pricing. I've been working on site paving for a few years now and I'm trying to get started up on my own. I've seen prices per sqm (say £90). Is that just for the prep and laying? Is that inclusive of type 1,blocks, sand and any labour? Obviously you'd charge the extra for any skip or grab. Just wondering. Thanks

Thanks for the link digerjones. Had a look and it doesn't include drainage which makes sense to me. I'm in London which I know is more expensive. I'm just getting going so hiring all the plant which isn't cheap.
