How Much Should I be Paying for this?

Hi All,

I have been quoted the sum of 3k for taking out my exsiting chimney (upper one is out already and brackets fixed) making good the wall and then building my personal Plasma Wall with lights and etc etc...does this price seem too high?

Please let me know,

Thanks

Umar

Doesn't sound too out-of-line but it depends on a lot of things. Best way to make sure you're not being fleeced is to get at least three quotes.
