  • I'm looking to get rid of a shit bit of the lawn and turn it into a play area (with climbing frame etc) for my daughter.

    It'll be 4mx5m (basically squaring off the garden in the image). Digging down to 150mm, laying membrane then filling with about 3,000l of softwood chips. I'll also continue the border of bricks that edge the garden; connecting them to those by the patio at the back.

    I'm looking for quotes this week but, with the mass of bank holidays coming up, am I mad in thinking I could do that with a mini digger, skip and a long weekend (with a second person helping)?

    Skip, digger, chips and membrane are less than £1k all in.

  • So long as you know you've got nothing under it, I'd say that's reasonable (assuming you've used a mini digger before, or had more than 3 go's on the coin operated static ones at theme parks).
