Hi guys, thinking about getting our driveway re-done, basically replacing
tatty concrete with cobble type blocks, approx 35sqm

Before I get too carried away can someone give me a ball park figure for how
much I should expect to pay for this (I'm in Surrey) Know this is not
strictly DIY but haven't gpot the time to do a proper job myself

Thanks

Jim



We found a place in Farnham, Surrey called Pinks Hill, I can't remember how
much the sets were as we were interested in Indian sandstone that was £25
p.sq.m (just like York paving). They were fairly cheap for their quality,
they have a website:

and a telephone no: 01252 727900


And we, having visited there, found the same stone not 8 miles away in
suffolk at £19 a sq meter...thanks to a bit of calling up and Cormaics
wonderful site. Kent Blaxill. Just laid the first 2 sq meters of 80 :-(

I'd say 50 a sq meter laid for this sort of job, but consult
