Hi Stuart for this size job professionally paved with replacement block paving manhole cover and frames, aco type surface water drainage ( new legislation regardind dispensing water on to the highway), key kerbs to driveway entrance, 60mm paving allowing for heavier vehicles and cut in with diamond blade I would charge around £3,400.00. Others in our area would do it for less by cutting corners ie less excavation poor sub base, 50mm blocks, cheap labour etc. Unfortunately I don't travel to Notts (except to DTD) but if you want advice my numbers are here. www.millenniumdriveways.co.uk |

I believe the Plaspave Sorrento Setts are a bit more than the normal paving? |

I believe the Plaspave Sorrento Setts are a bit more than the normal paving? Sorrento is a tumbled sett and you can get tumbled paving from pretty much all manufacturers. Plaspave is a good paver, at the moment through our suppliers Eaton tumbled are the best price. Having a tumbled paviour you may have to buy to the nearest pack so 9.88m2 per pack means you/your chosen firm will need to buy 6 packs meaning a little wastage. On my costings your drive using Eaton tumbled would cost an extra £650. Total cost £4,050. |

What you have to remember is if you have been quoted by a larger or national company then there are sales commisions and larger profit margins to pay, all + 20% vat.

These are the £4.5k guys http://www.pavingnottingham.com/ Quoted direct so hopefully no sales commisions. Gonna see if they will shear a little off it and then get them on it. |

The very last hand of the night goes to Dewi James, who finds ACES and talks Raymond O’Mahoney into calling his all-in preflop bet of 15k. “If I had AQ, I’d call!” says Dewi. Raymond calls holding pocket 66’s.
