price advice on bathroom

[fad]

I would appreciate another opinion on pricing. The job consists of walls:
remove 3 sq.m of tiles
remove skirting and make good
Box in pipes under sink ( about one metre)
replace bath panels with plasterboard and tile
tile all walls - total meterage including bath approx 17 sq. m ( ceramic tiles)
Floor:
saw bottom of door
fit backerboard or similar
lay porcelain tiles 3.6 sq.m
I was thinking of something like £450/£500 for walls
and £300 for floor
I'm not fast so it would take maybe 8 days.
Is this pricing realistic ?

Hi, You don't mention tile sizes, But prob I would charge day rate for everything but the tiling, Then Walls £25. 2m :£425... And floor £30. 2m. :£120. Matts on top.

Tile size of porcelain will be 50cm square. Ceramics are small-something like 25x35cm.
Also, I forgot to mention that there's going to be a mosaic glass border (2 lines) running horozontally around the bathroom. Also, vertically down one wall and across the floor to the door.About 10m in total.

lift the price by £250 if you can manage it but add materials on, Personally I think you are on the low side because it works out at £93.00 per day and that is on the low side.

Dom - its on the low side if he takes 8 days!
1 day to do the preparation (don't use plasterboard on the bath panels).
7 days to do 20sq mts of tiling!!!!
£800-00 for the work described is more than reasonable!IMO.

Totally agree. Like I have said before, It is not the customers fault you are still a bit slow, It is just one of those things and will come. But taking that long your day rate will never work out. if you price to make up for your speed, you will always get beat on a quote and loose all your work.
