Hello everyone, I am starting my own buisness and have a customer wanting their driveway block paved. The area is 39m2 sloped to main road. They have asked to have bullnose edging, and for the kerb to be dropped. Then just sloped down to road. They do not require drainage, if you could give me a rough idea of how much you quote for labour that would be great. I don't want to be too high or too low. Just quote of labour cost would be great. I have worked out materials and skip hire etc.

Thanks in advance.

£10 - £15.00 per sq.m + vat for labour only

Is that just for laying blocks? What about excavation?

work out how many days you think it will take you
then times that by your day rate
then add your profit margin
we cannot give exact rates because wages/muckaway,etc cost different things around the country
down here that would cost around £3k +VAT all in
btw you can only work to the curtelage of the clients land
the council do the dropped kerbs nowdays
or it may be different in the IOM?
