Quoted today to put 25sq meters of tiles onto bare walls.. €1,400
Surely this is extremely costly.
What do local spanish people pay to have their tiling done? I had hoped to pay much.much less that this ludicrous quotation...that was only for the work, I would provide the tiles, adhesive and grout.

Help...please.

Does sound a bit expensive I would say about half that sounds about right but I haven’t seen the job I’ll have a look if you like

Thank you for recommending Ivo.
What does he charge?

[Beardyboy]

Dave,
Please arrange to come and offer a price.
Thanks.

[Alf Tupper]

I honestly can't remember but it wasn't expensive. Give him a call and he'll pop round and give you an estimate.

Beardyboy, I'm with Alf. Ivo is brilliant with tiling and other building work. Totally trustworthy and very fair prices. He has done numerous work for me and my neighbours and I cannot recommend him highly enough. Well worth a quote.

[Beardyboy]

Thanks to everyone who took the time to offer suggestions and advice.
Time has run out on this occasion . We should have flown home on Friday but changed our flights and return home this coming Friday. No time to get the work done this time so it will have to wait until we come back in the Autumn.
The laugh is, we are going home and plan to have our en-suite remodelled during the summer . This time,I won’t have the forum to rely on and will have to pay through the nose for tiles and most other things.
But,Joy of Joys, we have the good old British Open to look forward to! The best days are the practise days and look forward to watching the boys prepare for battle.
Many thanks again.

No such thing as THe British Open it is called THE OPEN I hope you enjoy it I will

[Beardyboy]

Of course you are right Freddo. The Open is often referred to as The British Open to differentiate from The Irish Open and the Scottish Open which all precede the Open.
Now that that is cleared up, we may all look forward to each of these great events. Cheers!
