Hi guys I live in a leasehold property and the council wish to repair the wall that surrounds our communal gardens.
The wall is around 30 m in length and has varying heights. I calculated the cross sectional surface area to be 20 m^2
It is a double brick wall and I estimate the number of bricks to be around 2500
The wall does need replacing. there will also be resurfacing of a concrete path
The quotes for the work are as follows
Broken down by section.
1, Demolish exiting wall & break up hardcore + removal £1800
2, Concrete foundation to new retaining walls £5600
3, Brick retaining wall construction £10000
4, Renew concrete path £3000
5, Chainlink fencing £300
This comes to a total of £20700
This seems way over the top from looking around on the net for average costs.
Can any one with experience in these things help me determine if this quote is in any way possible ?
Thanks
