Moving walls!

Hi Guys,
Just wondering if anyone knows (roughly of course!) how much it would cost to pull down a stud wall 12'0 and rebuild it 4'6" back. The door will obviously need to be re-hung as well. :confused:
Just bought a new flat so i'll be hounding you guys with questions!!
Ta muchly

  • If i was you? i would take off the plasterboard undo the screws and move the frame four feeet back.
    I would attach it to the walls again and have it replastered, you can cut the plasterboards yourself and plaster it yourself.
    Will save you £400-£600
    I'm not poor i'm just skint
