    What are block layers charging per block in the west for standard block on edge - no insulation in cavity .
    Also what increase in cost would u expect for them to lay a 150mm block on edge instead of 100mm
    Thanks

    In the west €1.30 a block. Insulation, wall ties, lintels..etc are all deemed to be included in the block rate.

    Some block layers charge double (€2.60 a block) for finishing out the gable.

    What does finishing out the gable mean?
