    I got a quote for the front of my semi detached 3 bedroomed house, to pave the area, and put up a retaining wall. £3500 - £4000 from Homefirst, or housefirst or something. they have done a few round here in South Belfast, and their work is excellent.... hope you get help. can't afford to get it done at the moment, but I thought it was reasonable, as I have had my car stolen twice.... and need to get it off the road.
