No idea, but I'd try asking about labour instead.

Even for STW, that's a poor show.

Nothing there at the moment.. Just grass and soil.

Access? Can you get a mini digger round the back? Need 750mm for a micro. If so two days to reduce dig and stone up. I reckon I could lay that in two days no problem with a day extra for pointing and general tidying up to the edge of the lawn etc. So a week two men. £1250

Actually just seen your sizes which are smaller than the pic so perhaps shave a day off.

A friend had a similar sized job done, one man for a week @ £150/day + materials.

How much is your house worth? Divide by two plus cost of slightly deeper excavation. Simples.

Access is only through front door.

You need a digger for this 😯

..a neighbour of mine and his brother do something like this and same size 3metres x 4.8 metres but bricks instead of slabs for just 1 full day and only need a shovel 🙄

Onwards then you top builders. How long to dig all that grass off and reduce dig the soil with a shovel then put a good 100mm of type 1 down. Go for it! Hang on, get Dave and his mate trev round and they'll just lay it straight on the grass. 😉
