Rebuild Front Garden Boundary Wall and Fix/Replace Gate

  • Location: Southampton
  • Hired: HGS Property Maintenance
  • Trade: Bricklaying
Job Description

My front garden wall was knocked down by a car and needs rebuilding.

There are two lengths/sections of wall to build with two pillars and a gate post (plus gate fix or replacement):
First, starting from the main house side wall up to the pavement, there is a side wall section which forms a boundary between the garden and a driveway for rear access. This terminates with a pillar of bricks built up to form a corner between the side wall and the front wall. The front wall runs parallel to the pavement forming a boundary between the pavement and the front garden, and also terminating with a pillar the same as the previous. Then there is a plain metal gate which may be fixable (it is bent) or may need replacing. A wooden post was attached to the old pillar for the gate to meet up with. The pillars have some tiles used sandwiched between layers of bricks at the top to give extra detail/interest. The wall sections are finished on top with vertical bricks in groups of three at different heights to give a slight castle effect.

The old wall is still on the ground in the front garden (I have no means of disposing of it so haven't touched it other than to make it safe). The foundation used for the old wall appears to be solid and fine to build back on top of.

The approximate dimensions and brick estimates are as follows:
Side wall section - ~283cm wide, ~78cm high, ~120 bricks
Wall corner pillar - 35x35cm, ~107cm high, ~60 bricks plus some tiles (I think these are simply terracotta)
Front wall section - ~353cm wide, ~78cm high, ~150 bricks
Gate pillar - 35x35cm, ~107cm high, ~60 bricks plus some tiles
Gate post - ~12.5x12.5cm, ~100cm high, exterior timber
Gate - ~81cm wide, ~83cm high, iron

Total bricks ~400

Quotes to include everything please (labour/materials/gate repair and replacement options if possible). Also if it is normal to try and re-use bricks then quote for that too.
