Hi members just some advice here thanks.I have an elderly
Lady whose carpets I`ve cleaned for many years,also I`ve
Painted/decorated her staircase one time as I used to be a
Painter/decorator `many moons ago`.
She`s asked me if I can ceramic tile her kitchen area splash
Back around her oven and washing machine.It`s been done
Before with plain white tiles,it does look `ribby`,some are
Cracked and badly discoloured.It covers an area of about
2 to 3 square yards and the lady has taken advantage of some
Boxes of beautiful end of range discontinued Italian ceramic
Tiles.Things are a bit quiet for me right now and I`ve always
Fancied doing some ceramic tiling.To scrape and chip off the
Original tiles,prepare the wall area and tile / grout etc what kind
Of price do I give her ? Also what are the pitfalls to a job like
This ?
The walls are in excellent condition.
Thanks in advance for replies.

Hi. I get asked to do lots of little jobs too by my customers. I usually go on time. I charge roughly £20 per hour for any service. So for a 9 to 5 day say about £150. If I have to buy materials I just give them receipt and add this on. Bear in mind plaster will probably need making good and you have to buy Tileand Grout adhesive, Beading etc... Hope this helps !
