Planning a lift and re-lay job in Hadley
In and around Hadley, village-style frontages sit alongside newer cul-de-sacs, so the right block often depends on the age of the house.
Clay ground is widespread in the West Midlands, so the sub-base depth and drainage are checked on every survey.

For Hadley, our guide is £35–£80 per m² including VAT, so 30 m² re-laid is likely to be £1,050–£2,400. Smaller jobs cost more per square metre because set-up and waste costs do not shrink with the area.
