Cyclone   10 #37 Posted April 24, 2007 Well I have worked in London at Canary Wharf development and as a skilled tiler we were on £18.50 per sq metre labour rate sub-contract. We usually completed between 15 and 20 sq mtrs a day. Day rate was £200.00. £100 in London for time served skilled trades :hihi: dream on.  That's what I was saying, were you agreeing with me, or misunderstanding and disagreeing with something I didn't say?

Chipmunk   10 #41 Posted April 24, 2007 I've a bathroom and a downstairs loo in desperate need of attention and your work looks fantastic FYTC, so I'm hoping my six numbers come up on Saturday (or at least 5) and then I can give you a ring, but I'll probably have to compromise and settle for something less attractive but probably more affordable. It's true though, you get what you pay for and if people can afford a top class job, then why not! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Chipmunk   10 #46 Posted April 25, 2007 Thanks for the compliment, I think  Yes, it was, but I know some things can be misinterpreted when written, which is why sometimes people on the forum take offence when none is meant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Gavbriggs   10 #47 Posted May 1, 2007 500 quid is very cheap and if the guy can afford to work for that and do the work to the same standards as me and or fytc then he can work for me for £750 per fortnight labour only (this is what i would estimate the average to take). 3.5k is more than i would like to spend on a bathroom (mainly as i would be doing it myself) but i have fitted and sat in far more expensive than that. some people will spend a small fortune on the best brands and quality workmanship.
