WELCOME TO THE NEW-LOOK PAVINGEXPERT WEBSITE!

You may be a first time visitor or someone familiar with the old website which
served well for 20-odd years but a new decade needs a more responsive design and
simpler navigation. There is still a lot of work to do with this new site, so
please bear with me while I get images updated and the new content coralled into
the right place.

If you spot any glaring errors or cock-ups, please let me know...contact form


THANKS!
