When you want a chimney breast removed or a small wall built, you’ll need a builder. Builders can help with a range of small and large jobs around your home – but how much will they cost? Our cost guides help you decide how much you should budget for various small building jobs in your area.
Our cost guides help you find out how much you should budget for various small building projects, from repointing brickwork to installing a fireplace. Take a look at our small builder cost guides below:
It’s possible to hire a builder for as little as £16 per hour, but the UK average is £29 per hour for small jobs like building a retaining wall. But remember, cheapest doesn’t always mean best – you should check your builder’s references, look for ratings and reviews and make sure they have the right insurance before you choose a builder. Never be attracted purely by price.
