Re: Ballpark cost for a 42" Pompei type oven?
Like dmun said it looks like the insulation is missing from this quote.
In my opinion that is CHEAP!! That quote would only cover my labor cost for a 46 inch oven, just for comparisons sake.
Also from a construction perspective. A good clay brick has a higher compressive strength than CMU. It would be wise of the mason to just lay up a double brick wall (that way the interior of your oven base looks good too) and fill it with concrete and rebar. It would save him time and materials instead of veneering CMU block.
