Services / Paths & connecting spaces
Paths & connecting spaces
Start with how people move through the property. Ask about width, levels, drainage and how a proposed path connects with existing surfaces.
Connect the destinations clearly.
A path serves the way people move between doors, gardens and outdoor areas. Width, changes in level, crossings and surrounding surfaces need to be reviewed together. Ask how the proposed route is assessed and where related landscape or drainage work begins.
Before you enquire
Describe the start and end points, current route and intended use. Mention steps, gates and narrow access. Confirm which measurements and site observations are needed before a specification is proposed.
PlanningFrom idea
to a clearer scope.
- 01
Describe the project.
Start with the type of work, general location and the timing you have in mind. A few useful details are enough for the first conversation.
- 02
Confirm the scope.
Discuss access, existing conditions and any drawings or permissions needed. The contractor can explain what must be assessed on site.
- 03
Review the proposal.
Understand the included work, exclusions, sequence and payment terms before agreeing to proceed. A website enquiry is not a contract.
