Building Costs around the country?

    Read through the thread on the Extension costs there and I was wondering what would be the cost around the country?
    I've recently had a house built down in the west and it cost me €100 to €110 per sq. ft. So I was shocked to hear that a 300 sq.ft. extension would cost 80K!
    So, what are the variations for building costs for houses (not extensions) around the country?

    The cost of an extension seems to be a lot more than the actual costs to build a complete house.
    The costings from builders here in Mayo are running from anything between 100 yoyo to 120 per sq foot.
    If you do a direct labour project like I am doing and am doing a chunk of the work myself, this will work out at about 60 Euro per sq foot.
