Hi all, any advice much appreciated.....
I'm trying to gauge my speed compared with more experienced tilers - I realise we can't compare prices in this part of the forum, and they would vary anyway in different parts of the country, but I would like to improve on my estimating for future jobs.
I've done a fair bit of tiling on smaller jobs or for myself as I'm a plumber. However I'm currently doing the wall tiling on a full 4 piece bathroom involving 25m2, which is a big job for me! I used gauges to mark out the room and batoned out. I'm happy (and the customer is!) with the quality of the work but I'm trying to gauge how fast - or slow I am!
overview of the job:
Tiles roughly 280x330mm (not got any here).
25m2
cuts round 2 sockets, extractor, cold pipe and electric outlet for electric shower, boxed in bath (but removable panel), and 3 sections of boxed in areas for waste/pipes.
3mm grouting
bottom row of tiles fitted seperatly to allow laminate floor to be layed(not my choice).
How long would people take on this sort of job please?
Thanks in advance,
Mark
