    It took a day to take out window / shoddy bricks / clean and sort all the used - mortared bricks. Then another day to do the brickwork. I left the top ones overnight, these are now done. Im going to wait for the mortar to dry before re-fitting the window.

    You've done a really good job Atomix. Much better than the so called pro. Also saved yourself money, and will give you confidence for other jobs.
    Nice to see the photos, thanks for taking the time to post.

    I'm impressed with that. What happened about the payment issue?

    I paid half. As they removed and replaced the other window. Probably over generous?
