Kandla grey paving and footpath in Lewisham
Marie's side and back garden in Lewisham were fully paved in Kandla grey 60x90. We brought in a digger to clear the ground, put in a type 1 base, then paved down the side and behind the house, with a footpath running across the back garden to the far end. The soil was left ready for Marie to turf. Ten days, £10,000 including VAT, with everything supplied and installed and all waste removed.

It is a good example of the patios in Lewisham and garden paths in Lewisham we take on.
