    Hey guys

    What you reckon it would cost to remove a wall and put sliding doors in place. Lenght is 3m long approximately.

    Can give more info if you want. Just curious cheers

    Is it internal or external wall?
    If external is it brick Veneer or cladding on timber frame.

    Two critical questions @bob shovel asked
    • Wall colour
    • In the Druie - allow for 3 times as much material ;)

    In the Druitt we just drive a car through the wall and put a plastic tarp up. Then claim everything on insurance. Finish up with money in the pocket lol.

    Yep external wall brick vaneer. Why would wall colour matter? Internal wall is an ugly light blue however painting soon. In the riff lol

    I have an extension at the back which goes past the existing wall. I have an opportunity if i can to knock down a wall and creat more light and open the back of my house up. The kitchen and dining can continue onto an outdoor area central to my yard. I have concreted outside so a sliding door put in and i can set up a little outdoor area ready to go.
