How much should I expect to pay to retile front path in black/white victorian style?
We have been quoted around £**. This seems high to me, and I would appreciate any guidance. The front path needs replacing, as the quarry tiles that are currently in place are all cracked and many are missing. I live in North London, and any advice would be really welcome! Kirsty- Unregistered
