Cost for re-doing garden

Hi,

Before anyone says "How long is a piece of string?" I am only after a ball park figure.

Having finished DIY'ing the house (some of you might recall from previous threads) it is now time for the rear garden. Unfortunately I have run out of steam and time and am therefore looking to employ someone to come and do our small garden (7m x 6m). It does need to be dug out and we are looking for someone who can do help deisgn, pave and put in a small area of turf. What should I be looking to pay for the total project? Can anyone recommend anyone in the Hertfordshire area (Stevenage)?

Many thanks in advance

    I know that Ayletts Garden Centre near St Albans do garden designs and probably can recommend people to carry out the work (or they may do it themselves). See: http://www.aylettnurseries.co.uk/services/design.htm#

    Also most other garden centres have cards from garden designers or can recommend a local one.
