mini-diggers can fit through the front door these days!
No, can't see any other way of getting it in, would have to be lifted right over the house. The house on the other side of this neighbour got a sunroom a few years ago without the need for a digger. Whereas the text said 'I need to get a digger in'. OH is really reluctant (as am I) to fall out with this neighbour so am interested to hear your views as don't want to be mugs either, thanks for the reply.
Exactly as PaddyBloggit says, it will cost them more to repair your patio than they will save by not hand digging it.
Just thinking out loud:
It might be possible to cover your patio in c. 9" of compacted sand - and then put a timber "path" on top of that. It would spread the weight of the mini-digger.
Best if you got someone to run the calculations though...
I agree DerKaiser, as the evening goes on I'm getting more agitated by the neighbour even asking. I know it will be the brass neck of the builders though.
Yes our house cost €30,000 more, so good point...

if the digger has caterpillar tracks, they exert 3-5psi, that's as much as an average adult standing up.
A good looking blond in stillettos can exert 2000 psi. do you insist she remove her shoes?
I wouldnt
