dunno if it’s kosher to start threads looking for recommendations, but if not, no problem with this thread being removed.
i’m looking to knock the wall in front of my house and replace it with railings – i’m the only one on the street with a wall, and it looks fairly ropey anyway. would be looking for fairly standard railings, about a metre high – does anyone have any recommendations about who would be able to do it? would be about a 20 to 22 foot job.
this isn’t a restoration job, per se – there’s no prevailing style of railings along the row of houses, as they originally opened straight out onto the footpath till a few decades ago, when the council gave the residents about 10 foot of the road, for them to put gardens in.

Depends on what you are looking for; if its a period look you want try e-bay as there is a good quantity of this type of railings available in the numerous salvage yards in the UK who have all become very active on e-bay in recent times. If it is something more contemporary I’m sure that most contractors could advise on whats available as each cost range.
cheers – i’m being quoted (well, two so far) of between €1200-€1500.
