Hello fellow property loversssss! I got a quote for the laying of kitchen lino, room is 5.25 x 4m, lino is cheap tat off ebay, cushion backed lino. 100 quid! Is this steep? We do have a couple of recesses, but nonetheless isnt this a bit steep? I only paid 178 for the lino!

Sounds reasonable to me but will depend on where you live.

That sounds reasonable to me. You have to consider that your workman will likely be charging your for a day's labour. Even if it doesn't take the whole day, he won't then go off to another job for a couple of hours and the job has to be worth his time financially. Obviously you should get a few quotes though to ensure you don't pay over the odds. Or hire a handyman who works hourly - I do this for small jobs.
