Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Hi James

Wessex estimating item GJ002 Closing Cavities not exceeding 75mm wide:

102.5 Facing Brickwork:
at jambe or end of wall 0.40 lab hours per m
at sill 0.55 lab hours per m
at top of wall 0.30 lab hours per m

As I advised earlier - get the disc from RICS bookshop.

Best regards

Even though this is non-technical answer,

For trying to help you, i have just found these typical sections about insulation of cavity walls?
