Why Waldridge is different from the rest of Chester-le-Street

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