Hi

A friend of ours and his mate have quoted £1000 to tidy up our garden over 4 days, based on 8 hour day(64 hours total for both), that works out to be £15.63 per hour according to my math.

Over the 4 days this will include
Re-turfing the lawn
Putting bark down for play area and doing the edging
Replacing 5 patio slabs
cutting back some bushes/trees

We will be paying for and sourcing all the materials/supplies skip, bark, etc for around £600

Is that a suitable hourly rate/quote?

Location is Leicestershire if that makes any difference
