slate pricing

[bluesky]

hi all,
what`s the going rate for laying slate 600x600 ?1st area 65 m2 then basement after xmas -95m2 labour only .i was thinking around £30 / m2.?(straight onto concrete):8:

 

[doug boardley]

depends on the cuts imo, but £30m2 exclusive of mats seems reasonable to me

30-35 a m2, depends how much cutting and the quality of the slate, you may have to sort out the thickeness of the slate and sealing as well.

Had guy tell me he would charge £80 m2:yikes:

depend how your area is workwise mate,sounds fair but a lot are laying much cheaper,,personally its a good sized job id be inclined to drop to secure it

You're not too far from me. I agree that £30 /sqm labour only seems fair provided the substrate is good but would look for more if the substrate is in bad condition. I'd charge an extra day for the sealing, too.
