Trig Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Our book price is £330 a week, but unless you say what you are doing I cant reccomend what to look at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danposs86 Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 I am guessing digging part of the garden up for decking? Win that decking off eBay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trig Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 hmmm. maybe 3 passes with a turf cutter would be better. would be loads easier to keep it level, just depends on how rocky it gets once you are a couple of inches below the surface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sortedford Posted May 20, 2008 Author Share Posted May 20, 2008 dont think its rocky, theres just loads of shite in the soil that i wanted to shift out and put down fresh. Theres toys, coal, metal stuff, carpet and god knows what else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

racetechturbo Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 my garden used to be bad made up a big sieve (wood and mesh) fitted it to a littl eengine and dug it into teh sieve and it made it mint washed teh stones and had some mint gravel for some bits and perfect soil in others not ideal for an acre (i have a hooj garden) but it was good for bits here and there thats alot of mud to move, you cant sweep it under the carpet, if it were me i'd work with what you have, if the house is under 20 yrs old i bet 4" down its rubble and crap all over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
