Why Eppleton is different from the rest of Houghton-le-Spring

Eppleton is a suburban pocket inside Houghton-le-Spring, and the practical realities on site aren't the same as a generic Houghton-le-Spring job. We plan around back-garden patios with level changes and lawn-to-paving transitions. That's why this page exists separately to ourHoughton-le-Spring page— the work, access and finishes are typically different even when the postcode is shared.
