After seeing this in my local B&Q store , I think I'll be putting my prices up saying as its kitchen fitters that do the majority of their tiling ! I struggle to get £14 per m2 !!

I've moved this to the arms, just so we can discuss pricing in private.

I'd be more concerned if they were doing it at £14/sq mt!
Thats not to say the tiler/ approved tradesman is getting anywhere near that.
Be good to hear from anyone doing this work.

Yes, in there last week and saw that.

Seen that, tidy profit even with adhesive. Wonder what the fixer gets?

 

[Sean SML Tiling]

I know someone who works for bnq and he said tiler gets half the labour costs. So probably 15pm at least. Rip off in my eyes

Someone sent me the email with prices. Someone on here. Wasnt worth getting out of bed for.

 

[Sean SML Tiling]

It is b and q cam not exactly porcelnosa

 

[Spud]

This is positive surely? B&Q get so much foot traffic, maybe customers might not be so jumpy at independent fixer quotes.

Among a lot of my private work I have recently secured fixing contracts with a local high end builder at £30.00psm fixing only (materials, sealing, grouting and prep all extra).
More relevent to the topic though, im regularly subbing to a company that does the homebase installs for £150.00 day rate plus materials. Both I think are pretty good rates for non-private work.
