It depends. Is the wall load bearing? If so you will need engineers calculations and building control approval. Is it a stud wall? Is it brick / block. If its a stud wall it's no more than a day and a half's work. Not much more for solid walls.
Seems well over the top to be honest, especially as it doesn't include fitting a frame and door.Eat vegetables and fear no creditors, rather than eat duck and hide.0 -
