London Tiler Wanted For New Build House Tiling In New Malden, South London - Tile Advice

[SP87]

Hi all,

Am looking for a tiler to tile approx 70 sq m in total for a new build house in New Malden, KT3. Have attached floorplans of the property which have room dimensions on them (floor to ceiling height approx 2.45m) The details are:

-First floor bathroom fully tiled walls and floor including side of bathtub (ceramic, 600mmx300mm)
-Ground floor WC floor and half tiled walls (ceramic, 600mmx300mm)
-Ground floor kitchen/diner and hallway (including under stairs) - porcelain, 600mmx600mm

The entire ground floor will be a sand/cement concrete screed and the first floor bathroom will be a new chipboard floor and walls will be new plasterboard. I will provide just the tiles themselves and would like you to supply all adhesive, grout, sealant, cleaning products and tile trims. All tile trims for bathroom and WC to be chrome edged. Ground floor tiling also to have 10mm skirting edge against all walls.

Please PM me with a price and also let me know how much notice I will need to give you for your availability for this job. Please price excluding VAT as it is a new build house so is legally zero rated VAT on labour and materials. The construction of the house is still underway so the tiling will be ready to start in September.

Thanks

Got no quotes on here and also contacted around 20 tilers on Checkatrade, only 1 of which replied!

Is there something about this job tilers don't like or is everyone literally that busy they don't quote? I assumed tilers would want to do this job as it's a big one, no?

people are unable to price you the job, because to make an adjusted price they need to see the job, if the floor/walls needs preparation, not for being a big job.
I suppose a price like ****** pound by sqm does not make you too happy, so people simply do not waste their time to answer you for a job so far... in september. it's more likely they will not take this job anyway, so, why waste time?!
Count that sometimes preparing the surfaces to tile could be half of the work to do.

3_fall, was not a price, was a large margin as example, but I will replace if disturbs you:
SP87, I suppose that a price between x and 3x does not make you happy.

Actually a price between x and y is better than no quotes at all for me! As it's a new build house prep work should be minimal, but I understand people will still want to see the job before quoting. I wanted to get an idea of price and know how much notice people would need, so I could book the job in appropriately.

Will repost this closer to the time when people can come on site to see the job and quote accordingly.

I filled walls in a 14 sqm bathroom with 6 bags of adhesive . Took me more than tiling 10 m . So, a price between x pounds and 3x pounds does not help you too much to have an ideea about what you will spend on.

It's not about what disturbs me, forum rules state no prices in open forum!
Estimates or not, no prices, period!

I get the impression that some 'Tilers' don't know what a tender is!
There is enough information provided to submit a price for sp87 and as with all new work there is plenty of lead in time to visit and finalise details.
You should contact the Tile Emporium in Reigate and get a costing.
