Options
Hi,

Could anyone give me a rough estimate of how much it might cost to supply and fit a standard size patio door to an area that is currently window with brick wall below it?

Thanks

    patio doors in wickes from 240 to 1300 quid. depends on style and size?
    labour? 2 men 1 day. say 200-400 quid.
    bit extra for materials. lintel etc...

    assuming making good and decoration, bricks to the tip etc yourself?

    (say 50-100 quid for a skip if req).

    We had a set of patio doors fitted including a new lintel, brickwork, approxately 20-30 bricks last year for £1300. I could of got it slightly cheaper but I knew that the company that fitted local company would do a decent job as they have a good reputation in my home town and have also had several works done of the years

    The patio replaced a previous patio doors that were old, rotten frames and aluminium shell.

    we needed 4ft doors and 2 x side lights and was quoted £1200 from a local company. That didn't even include preparing the area - they expected my husband to remove the existing door/window and bricks to leave the whole which needed filling.

    In the end we bought the doors from Wickes (about £500) and my husband fitted them. It took a weekend but saved us heaps of money
