For homeowners in West Norfolk

Need a groundworker? Get it quoted.

Tell us the job once. We pass it to up to three local groundworkers who get in touch to quote. Free, and no obligation. King's Lynn, Hunstanton, Downham Market and everywhere in between.

Before you start

Do you need permission?

Paving a front garden with more than 5 square metres of hard surface that water can't drain through needs planning permission. Permeable surfaces usually don't.

A new dropped kerb needs permission from Norfolk County Council as the highway authority. Septic tanks and treatment plants have Environment Agency rules.

General guidance for England, not legal advice. The council's planning team can confirm for your house, and the government's Planning Portal has the details.

No. We pass jobs on, we don't vet anyone. Ask for insurance, references and a written quote before you go ahead.
