    Just wondering what it would cost to knock down an existing 100sq m house to build a new one in its place. Planning on site requires it.

    Is it a two story?Whats the volume of the building? work that out and allow around €60/m3 as a budget, if its traditional cavity block.

    Your best bet is to ring a few builders and ask them to be honest for a ball park figure.

    Things like poor access etc will drive that cost up

    If it includes carting away the material to a licenced fill etc then id jump on that!
