Porcelain Floor Tiles 300x300

[One Day]

I just charged £730 for 10sqm of 600x150 ceramic planks inc' materials. Concrete orangery floor.
Does that make me a bad man?! (day and a half, could have squeezed into one but I don't rush)

(Nice text afterwards saying they were really pleased too)

The fact they call there conservatory and orangery means they have loads of money to spend !!

How did you come to that figure?

How did you come to that figure?

If you also knew what i charged to supply and install the ufh you'd really not like me. Basically, I get all of my work through referral and recommendation so if i think i can charge a decent rate then i do. I deliver what i promise, they're happy and i get paid. If we all charged more and delivered what we should, we'd all be better off. Where it goes wrong is when decent tilers are having to compete with idiots.

I agree, there is always some one willing to do the job on the cheap and that's always tempting for customers but I wouldnt over charge like that unless I didn't want the job. Were they apparently wealthy? Working for builders and other outfits are what drives prices down

Why is it over-charging? Serious question, I'm not meaning to be flippant!

(I did want the job but I also have the luxury of not having to worry about where my next job is coming from)

I think I'm with localtiler on this and it is way over the odds for location and materials used. Don't get me wrong, if the customer is happy then all is good, but over £60 a m2 for run of the mill tiles is ott.
I'm all for making a good living and did £630 on Monday, but I feel like I earned that I wouldn't taking £600+ from a 10m2 floor.

Ok, fair comment. But why is it too much?
I can pay 90p for a cup of run of the mill coffee from a Spar vending machine, or £4 for a run of the mill coffee from Starbucks.
What's the difference?

I'm not trolling btw. Just an interesting debate!

 

[Flintstone]

I just think it's a really high price for what sounds like a basic job. If some one came to your house to wire some lights in or something and quotes you £500 and they did it in a day and only used a few wires, you'd be pissed.

If it was an elderly female customer would you have charged the same and slept well that night?
