Hi All,

Would anyone mind sharing what they have recently paid for the following trades including materials on a newbuild? Starting to panic about funds so looking for a rough idea. Completely understand its like asking how long is a piece of string but I would like to know ball park. For comparison house is 230sqm.

Electrics

Plastering

Kitchen

Tiling

Painting

Ive heard of painters in dublin looking for 200 a day cash for labour only.

I was quoted 6K to put in a walk in shower tray type (replacing a bath shower) and 3K for a front door (plastic really). Told both to take a hike.

Where?

Plastering 6 to 10 a square foot depending on finish and where you are

Tiling 20 to 30 a square meter depending on tiles

Anything else is hard to judge, tradesmen are making minimum 200 cash and 250 plus for through the books

That's a good deal if he's a good painter

Painting is something you could do yourself with the help / guidance of family/friend who has some experience. It's not exactly rocket science.

Regarding fitted kitchen, a bespoke one with all the bells & whistles could cost an eyewatering amount, but something like Cash & Carry type kitchens are reasonable in comparsion, could be under €10k depending on size. You could always replace it later with bespoke when funds allow.

Is it? I think the devil would be in the detail. If it's a 10 hour day then yes it's good.

8 hour day would be standard, maybe you'll get someone to do the 10 hours but obviously it would cost more
