Garden wall

[Yorkblade]

Hi all,

I am knocking down half a garden wall and by half I mean in length not height.
Was thinking of attacking this with hammer drill and or hammer and chisel.
Neighbour mentions using circular saw for speed. What do you chaps think?
Thank you

Hi,

I suppose it matters if you want to salvage any materials from the wall?
I have found one of these can take out nearly anything! :

Perhaps a photo could show us what you're up against?

I think you should ignore your neighbour.

Lump hammer, cold chisel and long crow bar.

...and if anyone were to doubt the power of a hammer...

You will get it down quickly with a club hammer and cold chisel, course by course starting from the top.

Your neighbour probably means a disc cutter, dangerous in the wrong hands, produces a lot of dust, and not quicker.

Blup

Circular saw on brick wall = trip to A&E or the morgue...
