Estimated cost of a garden wall
I'm not looking for a quote to have any work done, but rather a gage of what it would cost if a brickie did the job. i looking for a comparison of DIY vs get someone in not a job to be done Alan wrote: If I hired a builder to build a single leaf front garden wall ( 4 bricks high + fingers).

Say £250 per day or part of a day unless you are in an expensive area or planning to do the labouring yourself. AWEM |

They don't work 'per metre' on piffling jobs like garden walls, especially ones that are only 4 bricks high :-p They price per metre when there's a few hundred metres to do, other than that it's priced on day rate or per hundred or thousand bricks. If you've only got a few hundred bricks to lay, either lay them yourself or get a small builder in, it's unlikely a bricky will leave any kind of decent sized job to go and lay a few hundred...a small builder will probably charge you a day, approx £250, you supply the bricks. |
