Planning a lift and re-lay job in Dudley
Dudley has everything from short terrace frontages to wide drives on newer estates, so the survey sets the layout and the dig.
Inter-war semis with narrow front gardens are common in the West Midlands, so front garden conversions and drive widenings are often the practical choice.
