Tiler needed in Middx

[mick7]

Hi All

Hope its ok to advertise, but started to feel a bit shameful keep asking you guys all these questions.

50sq metre(48.5 actual) of 600 x 600x 10 non rectified beige polished porcelain tiles. Not B&Q. New open plan kitchen/lounge diner - half of area is good level concrete screed - 7 weeks old and ready. Other half is old very sound concrete floor again level and ready to start.

Pref. start w/c 4th Feb 2008.
Can anyone quote for complete job. I'm rubbish at tiling but know what is needed thanks to this forum and just want a good professional job.


I went to my local large tile shop who said they could'nt recommend someone but could give me a list of names ! I understand the legal implications.
However from this list we had one young guy who quoted so little for the job - and so underestimated for the materials it was ridiculous. One who thought our tiles were ceramic and they are 60 x 60 non rectified porcelain!!! The last chap who wanted to use non flex. grout and unibond!
We are in middx and need the job done pref. w/c 4th Feb.
Any ideas. I tried this siteoriginally but nothing came up for our postcode.

You would think so wouldn't you - but I've tried under postcode and town and nothing, I think you advised me before. Can't belive it really as live only 2 mins from J1 of the M3.
I'll keep trying

Just done a quick workout of your job and I get it to £1672, that's adhesive, flexi grout, porcelain impreg sealer and fitting, plus probably a good expansion joint too.
Couldn't be exact without seeing it obviously, but somewhere around that mark.

Many thanks
Are you saying you can do it, where are you? If so when could you see it.

I dont know if you can PM me on this forum?

Cheers
