Lift and re-lay block paving in Burgess Hill: the local picture

Burgess Hill is a sizeable town with a mix of semis, terraces and newer estates, and many drives here were first laid decades ago.

Chalk, clay and sandy ground all occur across the South East, so the dig and sub-base depth are set on the survey rather than assumed.
