danny Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 can anyone recommend a tiler that does not charge the earth for his work. This evening we were quoted the following prices €14 per m2 for floors, no paste or grout included, all of our floors have charpe on them, €16 per m2 for the poarche and the terrace and €28 per m2 for the SDB and toilette walls, all of the above prices are for cash. We thought they included TVA. We feel that we are being ripped off, a quote from another two tilers was even higher, and again the same demand for cash. We are at our wits end, we live in 17, can anyone help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gardian Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Danny - doesn't sound too bad to me. We've just paid more or less double that for 20sqm of floor tiling, but a screed was required, hence 2 days work. TVA was paid, so not 'on the black'.As with most things in life, you get what you pay for. Our job was a full 2 days-worth & immaculately done.Imagine our 20sqm x €14 = say £200. That's £25 / hr. You'd be lucky to get someone to walk through your door for that in the UK, wouldn't you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tresco Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 [quote user="Ian Horn"]Danny - doesn't sound too bad to me. [/quote]Me neither Ian. Danny, paying cash is fine, as long as you still get whatever paperwork is appropriate. A Floor or a wall that is tiled badly is a very horrible sight. I think the prices are reasonable. I live in the same dept. as you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
