    You can expect to pay around €150-180 a day, all depending on experience.

    I'd be charging €200-250 a day. My reason being that i worked for a flatpack assembly gut and he charge €25 per hour and i reckon carpentry work should cost more!

    Is that day rate of 100 / 130 euro including 13.5% vat .
    Does the carpenter have there public liability in place .
    seem very low when you less the vat , usc charged , income tax , prsi and diesel van and tools up keep .
