Cutting the gate down to a "Normal size" as it is 4 foot wide.
Repairing the red wall

    Hi I had a quote for a builder to replace an existing wall  with a new one @ 1.45 x 2. 10 Mtrs 
    Then repair the top of a end pillar that the gate hangs on 
    I agreed with the £730 and it has taken two days and the builder is now charging more because it has gone in to two days and extra bricks.
    The original quote he said it will only take a day and 3 people.

    This has take 2 people to complete and now he wants £1050 i told him i cant afford that so he has said i can pay when i can afford the extra and just to pay £850 now.
    I am happy with the job though.
    Not sure what to do as i don't have anything in writing
