Replacing a patio door with a window???

Hello, im awaiting quotes from a few builders. Amongst other things we want our sliding patio door removed and a window put in its place.

I dont have any measurements to hand but i know that the window is obviously less in width to the doors so will need bricking up at each side and from the ground up to the window.

Can anyone give me a ball park figure for removing the existing doors, supply and fit of the new window, bricking up the gap and plastering inside?????

Thanks ;)

    Having had similar done with wildy differing quotes I would say budget for 2k but get as near half that as you can. The labour is what will cost, the window will only be a few hundred.
