Hi all.

I am starting blockwork in the not too distant future on a direct labour self build. I am trying to find contractors who have built with Poroton before and how much I should be paying for laying T8 blocks. Do you have any names of builders or approx costs of laying?

Any info greatly received.

FBT should be able to supply you with names if you're buying from them.

T8's are about €7.50 each JPF.

He didn't ask what the blocks cost, he asked what he would pay to have them layed.

hi jpf
fbt in wexford should be able to guide you and possibly recommend builders familiar with them.however be careful of people advertising on this forum who do not know how to use this system! anyone else out there have an opinion on whether posters should be allowed advertise on this forum?
