I have rang around and got quoted €3.5 plus Vat a sq meter (capital expense so Vat back) from all except 1 who quoted 4.5 plus Vat a sq YARD! No one willing to deal on price, seems expensive. Also all seem to do different square sizes, different depths, different thicknesses. Hard to compare. I think someone was on here one time saying your aswell off doing it yourself with a hired scrabbler.

Well then it would work out at 1900 for 180 x 34. So it seems the op should be very happy with a price of 900
