    get yourself a hand grinder and a tile saw for cutting around plug sockets and tackle it yourself, just done my own never done it before took my time same size tiles as you are using, turned out great,
    just give yourself two days free,
    best of luck,
    wouldent have a clue how much a tiler would charge.

    150 - 200 euro would be about right. Mosaic is a lot of work. Make sure you get a propper professional.

    25 euro per square yard..anything more than that and you're being had.

    Your square yard price is ott. Its got nothing to do with it. Its a half days work for a tiler with nothing left but tidy up.


    With due respect to you and everyone else this type of job is not price based but time based. Its half a days work and depending on the amount of sockets and pelmets maybe a day. My figure should be accurate for one reason only.

    The op will pay someone else if a tiler does not treat him/her fair.

    shop around and you'll get it a bit cheaper. A friend got someone to do his kitchen recently, think he said it was 8 a sq meter and during the boom the same tiler was charging a lot more.
