Traditional French drain (no pipe)

Job Description
Dear Sir/Madam,
We require a traditional French drain (no pipe) to be create around a Victorian property that has damp problems. This work was recommended by the surveyor and we have had a damp survey carried out. The drain is recommended to be 15cm deep and 10cm wide, filled with 2cm pea shingle and a studded membrane put against the external wall. One side the house is grass (about 7 metres in length), but the other side has concrete paving slabs up to the wall, which we are considering removing, but in the meantime may need cutting to create the drain. This side is about 6 metres in total length. The drain will cover about 13 metres.
We are looking for a competitive quote for this work - ideally by the weekend.
Best wishes,
Steph and Jason
