"If you've got someone else helping you should easily get this done in 3 day, subject to the weather being ok for painting it. We still just use 50mm nails and a hammer, once you get going it doesn't take that long."

"Thanks Thermo, a good point but the cost of a compressor plus the nailer could be a step too far,also the location is quite far from the house and so power could an issue for the compressor. But if this goes well there's a distinct possibility…"

Hi Marc, Welcome to the network. I hope you'll accept my'friend' request. Also wanted to make you aware of the group I've just set up -North West Landscapers - I'm in the Manchester/Wigan area & as such it seemed to make sense to me to connect to anyone in the North West rather than county specific. Definitely not trying to replace any existing group, just looking to talk to like minded professionals in the vicinity. KInd regards, Donny
