    Default Speed?????

    Hi all, well been reading threads from the pages and the time people take to complete jobs. I recently asked advice about a slate floor, which thanks to the pro tilers advice went great. Looked the dogs nuts when done. Tiles were uncalibrated and 11sqm to tile.(Loads of adhesive) Took me 4 days to finish. Take an average kitchen of 5sqm, window, 6sockets, trims etc etc would take me 3 days to tile( 10 x 10 ) and half a day to grout and finish. How far am I behind ??
    Should I be taking 2/3 days. Im charging £450 for a kitchen which is a ton a day. Been tiling now for 3 months. Do you pick up tricks to speed up or just pure hard work. Ta Groucho
