Default Re: Pricing Job for Mosaic Tiling

I'm half tiling a bathroom in ceramic mosaic at the moment, first time attempt.
I'm doing it for a mate and as he's in the decorating game I offered to do the job for £200 on the proviso that he recommends me to colleagues and customers. Trouble is I quoted him the price for 150x150 tiles. I arrived on Monday and he'd been out and bought mosaics instead.
Anyway, the upshot of this is that he's seen what's involved and checked with guys that he knows in the trade and he's offered to double the original quote without me even asking. Still paying below the odds for the job but I was doing it cheap anyway. I'm finding the job a bit of a pain at times but it's all experience and I'll know how much to charge etc next time

Btw, anyone on here got any advice/tips for mosaic (apart from DON'T DO IT!)
