    How much does a tilers apprentice get?

    Never had an actual apprentice, was wondering what sort of money is right for a college student to learn how to be a high level bath room specialist whilst being used as extra labour at the same time...Yorkshire wage?

    Okay so I'm going to start the ball rolling. I'd like the forum to be handy for all, including those looking for tilers, or even DIY, to see what they're up against compared to a professionally carried-out job. So let's get this ball rolling. Let's try and come up with a base rate for tiling...

    How much turn over has Tilers Forums gained you in the last 12 months?

    Okay, so I don't want you to reply to this if you don't want to. The stats will be private, staff or myself can't get at them. They'll be public results, but nobody will tell who's voted what. You can ignore the thread fully if you wish. But I'd like to get a gauge on how much business the...

    Re: It dos'nt get much worse!
