    Seems Cheap. Thats £125 a day and significantly less as he is providing plastic boards, repointing materials, and concrete lintel.

    Once you take into account materials he has got be be pulling in less than £10 an hour which is suspiciously low. Unless I knew the quality of the work or knew he worked for local council but was doing this as a weekend pay booster I would be a little nervous.
