For what it's worth I applied recently for a dropped curb to be
installed at the front of my house in a small cul-de-sac and despite
the horror stories associated with only one contractor being approved
to do the work the estimate came in at £650 which I didn't think was
*too* bad. Sure it could have been cheaper but from all the stories I
was expecting a lot more.
We shall see though what happens when they actually come to do the work.
