    Just got a quote for the following, labour cost only:

    100 M2 of natural stone on 4 '' block work, includes 2 entrance walls approx 5m length each with 2 piers, 4 m length of wall extending along from entrance wall in one direction with pier at end and 40m length wall extending other direction with 3 piers, the 4 and 40m length walls will be retaining walls (4'' on the flat) with 3 piers.

    €6800

    Is this a reasonable quote?

    sorry, this is a little crude but hopefully it explains what is to be built



    P gate P
    / \
    / \
    / \
    P---P----P
    P P----P

    ( 40m ) ( 4m )

    P = pier

    the entrance walls are the ones running between the piers at the gate and the piers at the end of the /// line. These walls are 5m in lenght each

    You will need to hit reply to the first post with the diagram to view the diagram properly, the post itself has lost all the spacings I had

    What kind of natural stone are you using? Are you putting on wall and pier caps?
