I'm trying to price up the metal required for me to build railings round my garden (to compare it to the costs for building a wall which i have just worked out), but steel stockists dont seem to like to publish pricelists or be contactable on saturdays.
Does anybody here know roughly what something like 10mmx10mm square/round bar costs nowadays and what sort of lengths it comes in?
I am thinking of building posts using blocks and either building sections of railing (with the horizontals set in the mortar of the brick posts and the verticals welded on and then having some sort of tip added). When i last bought metal bar/angle 2 years ago it was cheaper than concrete blocks but prices seem to have gone up a lot since then!
