Hi,
We need to replace the fence in our garden (approx 80ft down one side), 20 ft across the back 15 ft to another side. Additionally, at the back of our garden we want 2 conifers (20ft) removed (but stump cut right down), a raised bed (15ft x 5ft) removed.
We then want a concrete basis in preparation for a summerhouse.
This is the quote we have received:
Remove Side & Rear Frencing & 3 Bays on the Right
Remove Conifer trees and dispose of
Remove old flower bed, etc. and dispose of
Supply & Erect:
2 8ft Concrete Corner posts
19 8ft Concrete inters popst
20 6x1 Concrete inner gravel boards
3 6x5 Featherdale panels
17 6x4 Featherdale panels
17 6x1 Trellis
All Timber Pressure Treated
Supply & Fit:
1 10Ft 6in Frame for Concrete Base and Fill Concrocts
12ft 6in
Leave Site Clear
Labour & Materials & VAT = £2,785.00
We are in Essex (Southend-on-sea)
This is the first of 3 quotes but I wanted to prepare ourselves of what we should be looking at!
Thanks
