High Spen is a rural pocket inside Gateshead, and the practical realities on site aren't the same as a generic Gateshead job. We plan around longer approach drives, gravel-to-resin conversions and rural drainage. That's why this page exists separately to ourGateshead page— the work, access and finishes are typically different even when the postcode is shared.

Natural drainage solutions are incorporated where mains surface water connections are not available.
