@KenSC91 @Joshtwhee1er You will ever get a truly comparable price because each contractor will interpret your requirements differently. If you want a fair comparison create a BOQ (Bill of Quantities) or a specific job description.

@KenSC91 They’re under no obligation to provide you with information on material cost, labour costs, product mark up or their operating profit and overhead margin.

@chibikuma83 Met up with my sister this weekend, she and her husband were in town for the rugby, booked a table for dinner, but afterwards do you think we could get in anywhere… sad times for Cardiff 😔
@Johnwhitworth66 There’s a sandstone quarry in between Petworth and Billigshurst in West Sussex, the road into it is like a goat track. There’s one road in and another road to get out.
