Does this seem v expensive to you?

[Mandana]

Quote from our builder ...

 

”I would allow 3 hours per m2 for medium format tiles + £11.00 per m2 for Adhesive, spacers and tooling, therefore our rate to install 1 m2 of tiles excluding the supply of tiles and trims would be £101.00”

 

?

Hahahaha!

I have Black Friday offer on and I’ll do it for £85/m and @Nickfromwales will come and mix the adhesive for me ... 

 

@nod is your man for pricing tiles but that sounds ... very expensive !!

You would be shocked at what I get for commercial tiling and have to pay someone to do it Then wait 60 days for payment

With us it seems to be about £35 m2 for a good tiler.

Here's chapter and verse on ours:

 

Exactly half way between the top and bottom hourly trade (not professional fee)  rate we have been charged in the last four years.

And the man is a magician: two speeds, dead slow and stop,  but does what he says he will do, reliable, arrives at 10 to 8 and leaves at 6ish. And sticks to his price.

Gold dust.

To give you an idea

In a fiddly little wetroom Gary?

Most I’ve ever charged is £70m2. That price above is ridiculous, tell them to jog on.

When is your turn to be the bitch?

We paid £25/m2 for tiling.  We supplied all the materials.  He did a really good job.

For £35 of that £85 per SQM I will mix that adhesive in 9 inch high heels and a Tu Tu gladly.

It is the word 'gladly' that stopped me giving you the job.

Only a knee injury stopped me from joining the royal ballet school but I kept all my outfits for sentimental  reasons. Lack of balance, grace and poise didn't help either to be fair.
