Approximately what does this cost? I k ow it depends on the size of the home, was just wondering if a ballpark figure. It looks beautiful and I’d like to have it for my home. The stupid vinyl crap looks awful.

great job but I usually get the cinder blocks flush with the walls, but also anchor the walls to the new cinder block foundation, I know it is pretty tedious work but way better results to keep rain water sliding down and out of the house, and a mobile home sitting on actual foundations, and adhered to the block, it gets pretty price for my clients, but well worth the price in my opinion.
