Ok, since when did digging up 2m of pavement and 2m of cul de sac to connect to a sewer cost circa 7 grand ?? not including the trench and pipework to the pavement and the actual connection work (Scottish Water). Seems like the big companies with the relevant tickets don't want the small job, so simply make up a price to put you off, unless you are an idiot and accept.

That does sound very expensive, I had SPEN do a 3 phase cable diversion on one of my projects last week and including the cable (12m) and 4m of trench, putting in joint boxes & a new cable head it was £2200. They also beautifully reinstated the slabs at the front of the building.

The whole of the energy connection job, including digging up another pavement, the connection and the reinstatement, is a quarter the price of digging up 2m of pavement for sewage apparently.
