    floor tiles, fixed with suitable
    adhesive and grouted
    on completion. 34 sq m @ €98.80 €3,359.20

    Is it reasonable ?

    Thank you

    Absolutely ridiculous price imo.
    I obviously don't know how much the tiles , adhesive , grout are costing, but you can buy a lovely selection for between 25-30per sq m and I'd presume they would be getting it cheaper as they'd get the "trade price".
    My advice would be to shop around.
    I would actually advise you purchase the tiles etc yourself and be willing to wait to get someone to lay them.
    Ask family, friends, work colleagues, I'm sure one of them will point you in the right direction.
    There's 3 days work to complete it, max.

    Tiler will cost you 180-300 a day. 3 days of work maybe? See how much you can get the tiles for.

    I was quoted either 800 or 1000 for a 22 sq m kitchen. Cant remember which as I got a bathroom quote too.

    Remove existing tiles and refit new tiles.
    I was supplying tiles, tiler was supplying grout and adhesive. Removed tiles and adhesive myself in the end and fitted vinyl floor. Removing adhesive was a bloody nightmare.

    Your quote is nuts
