[quote=devonmark;20172]If you were to Quote on a job and you had to remove tiles and retile and you quoted £450, if say you removed the tiles and the wall fell down (this is an extreme) and it was going to cost you £2000 to rebuild the wall..you cannot legally charge a penny more than what you [U]quoted[/U] and you legally have to put right the wall and then tile as per quote.

An estimate you can adjust your price should there be something unforseen...there will always be someone who knows how they stand legally..and it might just be that person at the time something a bit more than quoted for needs doing.[/quote]

That's why I say estimate for the preparation side of things. The quotation part is for when the preparation has been carried out and it is say 'tiling 20 square metres of ceramic wall tile, size 30x25'
