It sounds like a lot of money but likewise I think the pricing is about right. Stripping and levelling is a big job and you need about 40 rolls of turf.
There's a real danger that the left will drag Britain back to the 1970s, with secure well-paid jobs, ample housing, properly-funded NHS and social care, free tuition, student grants, final salary pensions, affordable rail fares and fabulous films and music.

Maybe be better hiring a skip and level the ground yourselves. Instead of re turfing buy some grass seed and plant it,As for the garden fence .....instead of getting a new one repair the old one and paint it up it will look good as new. You both will save alot of money.

As I read it, she doesn't want a new fence, she wants some ivy (ive) removing.
