Job Description
We have recently removed a brick planter from the front of our house. We need block paving to be laid over the existing space. The block paving will need to match the existing paving used on the estate.
The planter has left a space of 215cm * 250cm. Its not rectangular but as a guide the surface area is approximately 5.4 meters squared. The deepest point is 18cm.
The existing block paving is 200x100x60cm and laid in a herringbone format. The closest match we have found is the Marshalls brindle blocks. I would be keen for those quoting to check the existing blocks to be sure.
* Added 10th May, 2012 :
Correction to the measurement of the existing block paving. Its 200*100*60mm rather than in "cm" as stated above.

Absolute Building have done an excellent job replacing an old brick planter area with reclaimed paving blocks. They arrived promptly at the agreed time and were quick and efficient in completing the work. They provided a good explanation of what they were going to do and also provided advise of how the block paving could be laid to blend in with the existing paving.
Only downside is that the groundwork has left some dust on cars, which neighbours have complained about. Absolute Building though are contacting the residents to resolve the matter.
