You're looking at 2160 bricks roughly @ 36 Sqm.

Not a million percent sure but i think it's 60 bricks per square meter so 36 x60 = 2880.

That's what a little voice in my head is telling me :twisted: then again another voice is telling me to (hammer) my wife :shock:

Labour only I've been quoted about £850 for a single skin single-car garage, if that's any help.

That's cheap, I wouldn't build it for that!

Quotes I had for a front garden wall, in 3 sections totalling around 7m long by 1.5m high incorporating 4 pillars, were between £2,500 and £3,800!! This included foundations (concrete plus wire mesh - we have clay soil), materials and labour.

Gobsmacked by this, I priced up materials/waste removal myself . This came to c.£1,100 at retail prices, so at least £1,400 for labour (estimated 5 man days) . At the time there was (still is?) a brick shortage and prices were around 70p/brick. Don't know if this has changed in the last few months.

Decided to keep the old wibbly wobbly wall :(

HTH.

That's what I thought. Although it is only the bricklaying, not foundations, etc. I would have been wary, but the brickie has done an absolutely awesome job on my main extension. I guess he's just happy throwing bricks down in a neat line :?

It's a no-brainer then as you know what his quality of work is like. My brother is / was like that. Has a full time job as a lecturer but trained as a brickie and did it a weekends for recreation #-o happy as a pig in s**t as long as someone else was doing the mixing, fetch and carry and cleaning up. :lol:
