Hey all! Sorry for two posts in one day, had another quote come in for something and wanted to check. Has anyone here ever removed an existing AC unit from within a wall? I think it's called a Window Air Con Unit, but it's not in a window, it's in a wall. It's died, so we're looking at having it removed, the wall re-plastered, then painted and the hole on the outside re-bricked. Anyone know about how much this would cost? Been quoted $825 inc GST by a company I've used before through the RE.
One man 2 and a bit days + materials (bricks, infill hole in wall, pb etc) not too u reasonable in my books.
I just had the similar work done for an AC removed from a 2nd story window in a stair well, new glass fitted and old AC taken away.... cost me $400.
Yeah, that's what I was thinking. When I saw it, I thought "that's not so bad, was expecting it to be higher". $400! Wish my AC unit was in a window now haha, thanks! Awesome, thank you Wylie!
Decent price if labor & materials. If your any good at DIY you could fill the holes yourself with glass bricks.
Decent price but I would do it myself as the materials would be under $150 & $50 for tools. Cement, bricks, plasterboard, plaster & paint.
Some are better at some things others aren't, vice versa etc. Not a job I'd be tackling without some experience, , asking the Q shows no confidence, could spend all day on it only to have to call in someone to fix a potential mess
