    So the material alone is around 1k
    1k for labour - probably a little expensive as it is prob about 2-3 days work (in total keeping in mind he's to come back for grouting)...depends on the number of cuts etc, but since there are 3 separate rooms ~35sqm of that will be more work than 35 sqm in a rectangular room.
    For the little money you might save shopping around, Id stick with the builder as he
      might be easier to get hold of if you have problems down the line.
      you are keeping him on the line for everything. If you start getting other people in, the builder has someone to blame - say e.g. one of the joists was bouncy and your tile cracked. The tiler blames the joist, the builder blames the tiling. Not worth the hassle for the saving.

    You haven’t told us what type / size of tiles

    More than 2/3 days for a lad that is only doing 1 house. 2/3 days may be right if your doing next door etc
