Square metres

[Ian]

A customer asked me recently, 'how many m2 do you think you have fitted since you started tiling?' I tried to work it out and came to the conclusion that it was somewhere in the region of about 5000 m2 ( roughly 1000 per year on average since tiling full time). So, any ideas how many m2 you've done? Ball park figures welcome!

not tiling, screeding, but somewhere in the region of 1million m2 for me this year

About 20 bathrooms @ approx 26m2 each, about 15 kitchens @ approx 10m2 each, studies, halls & external approx 150m2 all in, mind I don't tile full time so about - 820m2 in 2 year...bloody hell!

I lost count about 1970, but if I had a pound for every M2 I had fixed, I would be a multi millionaire.:drool5:

an average site tiler does 60m2 a week so I guess between 2500-2750m2 a year would be a resaonable estimate, times that by number of years tiling and you wont be far away

So you charge less than a pound a m2 then. Think I'll subcontract you to do my tiling for me lol

Based on 8m per day 5 days per week 350 days per year for 26 years 364000m2

 

[Gall.B]

got my sums wrong its more like 54000 based on 8m2 per day

Count up your m2 then average multiply by your average rate, then look at your bank statement and........ Cry.
I'm not calculating mine, lol.

I've got a end of year statement for the last twenty years that has the exact m2 for each year and I've installed well over 50'000 square metres. The one thing I have noticed looking over them is how I've made much more money for installing far less square metres of tiles as I've got older and wiser!
