We have moved into a property that has brick wall sections. 2 sections are 3.9m long, 2-2.2m high with end and central pillar. One of these is wobbly and the other has cracked and is falling. At the end of these is a 1m curved wall that is also broken.
Funds are not available to rebuild 9m of tall brick wall, is it possible to fence if the wall is removed or to fence on the first few courses of bricks? What kind of costs would be involved?
The cause of the walls demise is ivy we estimate to be 20yrs plus left to grow on a bit of land that no one seems to own. It is 12ft high and 8ft thick behind the wall so this would need removing too.
Safest thing to do is remove wall if brick pillars are cracked and loose than strength is gone in wall and unsafe ,not usually good idea to erect fence on first few courses unless bricks are secure ,price reflects on what preference of fence needed as there are various types of fencing available
This is very easily done the wall can be removed to make way for new posts for a fence of your choice
Ideally would have to replace the existing retaining wall. Removing wall and fencing would leav the ground prone to land slipping.
Yes that is possible,simply a case of digging post holes concreteing them in and either using gravel base bords and slotting pre made fence pannels into the bays, alternatively for more privacy take the brick walls down and replace with blocks
You will need to apply for planning permission if you wish to erect or add to a fence, wall or gate:
if it would be over 1 metre high and next to a highway used by vehicles (or the footpath of such a highway); or over 2 metres high elsewhere; or
your right to put up or alter fences, walls and gates is removed by an article 4 direction or a planning condition; or
your house is a listed building or in the curtilage of a listed building or
if the fence, wall or gate, or any other boundary involved, forms a boundary with a neighbouring listed building or its curtilage.
You will not need to apply for planning permission to take down a fence, wall or gate, or to alter, maintain or improve an existing fence, wall or gate (no matter how high) if you don't increase its height.
From a workers point of view its no problem replacing a wall with a fence
hope that helps
Yes of course you can replace a wall with a wooden timber fence
Yes you can I would charge 350.00 to take wall dwn and remove from garden n fencing would depend on stylr m size so would av to talk when we meet up about that as I can build my own fence which is basic and would be cheaper
Hi yes this is absolutely possible and most definitely cheaper than building a new wall. The bulk of the cost would be materials I,e what kind of fence panels, posts (concrete or wood) the labour would have to be decided after having a look at the area to determine the length of days and how many people would be needed to clear the ivory
Remove the old brick wall and replace it with a new one maybe expensive but in the long term you may never need to do it in a lifetime. Putting concrete slotted post with wooden fence panels is cheaper the ivy can be taken down its part and parcel of what we do
Yes it could and I would Charge £1950 That’s including waste removal
Repoint or repair wall then fence in between pillars to suit
