Patio door fitting
I've got a quote to fit a patio door, there is an older door to come out and a bit of wall/window to remove. The Lintel is already in place. The quote is £1500, I have no idea if this is good or not, does anyone off the top of their head have an opinion?

Hi mate
You should be paying for 2 men for a day (at most) and disposal of material, i would say no more than 250-300 for the work. Does the 1500 include the door and plastering etc as well?
Ive recently paid £280 for 4 men to fit two patio doors which cost £650 each. Then the plasterer was on a day rate of £280 for 3 men to plaster the entire room.
Hope this helps?

I'd be at home under the quilt.
Even £90 a day for a proper plasterer is low money

Seems ok to me. If it's a proper UPVC company doing the job, check what profile the frame is.

I had all my double glazing done not long ago and it included 1 set of french doors composite front and back rock doors and all disposal and the whole lot only cost 5k. that makes your single door at 1500 look very expensive.

Get a quote for labour and any materials required minus the door and glass, there will be a profit to be made for them there, you could easily get it to around £1k sourcing the door yourself, plenty of trade suppliers that will deliver to site too

My friend had two windows and a patio door (doubles not sliding) fitted in 6 hours for £1700 all in yesterday. I'd say £1500 for just a door is a fair bit if standard UPVC Fare....
