    Assuming the following:
    1.) Site Prep is Complete
    2.) Foundation will be designed to hold a 320 - 350mm cavity wall above floor level
    3.) Good Ground conditions with the need for Solid Rising Walls to be 900mm high

    You are looking at approx. € 37 - € 40 (+VAT) per running metre of strip. This includes for Excavation of the foundation, cart away of excavated material, pouring of blinding and concrete and placing of 1 layer of Mesh
