Hello folks,
I am what you would call a ‘professional’ handyman/Sparky in training! Bloody good mind at it mind! I have a question I hope somebody out there can answer. I have just finished laying 4 square metres of 600 by 300mm porcelain tiles in a bathroom. The room was a nightmare shape (no wall was at a right angle or parallel to anything) and I was constantly up and down to the wet wheel. Out of the 22 tiles used I had to shape 14 of them with only 8 being a straight lay.
The problem/query I have is that I do not know what to charge. This may sound strange, but its for a well-off family member who is happy to pay the going rate. Casting my critical eye over my work I would say my workmanship is excellent and many a professional would agree I am sure. The main difference being that they would do it in half the time!!
I am based in the North East and the tiles/adhesive/grout have already been paid for. Are diamond bits normally factored in as part of a quote? If anyone can help I would be immeasurably grateful.
