I just wondered if there were any sheffield/chesterfield people who would be interested in quoting to finish my patio?

Basically all the prep work has be done and its just a case of laying the reclaimed yorkstones i've bought. I've made a start but i'm limied to doing it in the evenings and at weekends so its taking me a while, so i'm thinking i'd rather just pay someone to finish it (depending on what quotes are like!)

Its a about 27m2

The york slabs are pretty bloody heavy and of differing sizes so its a bit of a heavy jigsaw.
So far i've been able to do it myself, but mixing and laying all by myself is pretty slow going.

What would people estimate would be a reasonable amount for quotes to be to lay the stones? or an estimation of how long it should take/men required

Cheers

Matt

the guy who i got a quote from initially to do the work (and i was impressed with the quality of his work) is also in the same boat, i've now left it till summer, where everyone is booked up and really busy! doh!
