Load bearing wall Quote

[PaDE]

Hi

I’ve just been quoted £3k to remove a 10ft internal load bearing wall and for putting in a RSJ which will be flush as opposed to being visible (albeit boxed in)

Includes moving one radiator a couple of feet and skip.

No making good as I'll be sorting the ceilings out afterwards.
No electrical work as family member will be sorting.

I wasn’t expecting the quote to be so high so was wondering what you guys thought? We are East Midlands area.

It’s worth mentioning that it would have been £500 cheaper to have the RSJ visible but boxed in.

I’ll be contacting other builders this morning for further quotes.

Cheers

I have no idea on price but what exactly does the quote include ?
Making good afterwards ? skirting, plastering, painting, etc,
waste material removal from site ?

any electrics/plumbing on the wall that need to be handled ?

Was half asleep when I made the post, I've updated it now, thanks.

This will be flush so no boxing in visible. Pastimes either side so no goal loaded down the wall.

Got another builder in tomorrow to quote.
