how would you cost that ? one niche centred on a shower wall no problem but all those I hadn't a clue. lucky I could charge by the day . how long do you reckon this whole niche wall took to fix and grout , you might need to go back to earlier photos to see full extent of wall tiling of niches

Wow, stunning work there fella

Top drawer. Yeah, all those would have to be day work!

 

[Chalker]

I'm guessing that wall took about 4 days?

normally I would never charge by the day as I think this is highly unprofessional .you might lose out or you might win on something never done before but I think the client needs to know what costs they are in for .
it was only in this instance where I know contractor well that I don't want to give a price to cover myself as we have such a good business relationship . this niche thing was a new idea and I will do anything tiling wise within reason and give a price to do so.
how long do you think that would take to do ?

 

[hmtiling]

I'd have priced it@£600. 3 days
