As I said, I'm not a tiler at all, I'm a car mechanic by trade. But am looking to change careers and the idea of tiling really interests me. I was just trying to get a ruff idea of what potential earnings could be.
Average wage for tilers according to total jobs is around £32,00 per year. Another price online is; rates per square metre can vary between £20 and £40 per square metre. However, tilers can also charge by the day rate if they’ll be there for more than six hours or so, which can come to between £150 and £200 per day. so six hours a day, is now a days work haha. Greed, greed, greed. The times we live in hey.
I think as plasters nowadays and many other trades a fair days pay for a fair days wage is a no no. They will charge as much as they can no matter what and if the charge can be increased in any way at all, they will do it. Our society has become a dog eat dog society. On here, there seem to be some decent guys who are not willing to exploit people, they have integrity but most don't deserve the time of day, unless you charge of course for your time.
For these reasons above and shoddy work that has been done in the past by so called professionals, I no longer will have any tradesman doing work for me. I will do it myself and to a good standard but I admit is much slower.
