Cost to tile floor? Too much?

[FManc]

So we’ve just had our first quote in to retile our bathroom floor. It’s a 5.5m2 bathroom (that does include the shower as well though).

The job is to:
Remove suite temporarily (bath, basin, toilet)
Remove existing tiles and adhesive
Cement board and tile floor
Refit suite.

Just over £1000
That doesn’t include the cost of the tiles.
I’ve no idea what the average cost of something like this is so just wondering if this is about average or too expensive?

That sounds cheap tbh. It’s not just tiling either but fitting and removal of suite.

We were recently quoted €5000 for just floor tiles. That was removal of old ones, screeding to level and tiling hallway floor. It’s about 8m worth ( floor only though not walls). The tiles were around €1000, the rest mainly labour

That sounds very cheap to me too, is it a proper qualified person?

Yeah qualified and recommended to us as well.
We’re based in the North West - don’t know if that makes any difference.

It's a lot of work, and being a small space makes it more awkward, sounds cheap to me.

Agree that it sounds cheap!

Sounds cheap to me!

Sounds cheap to me. I'm in SE, but have been quoted £750 for tiling alone to tile a shower enclosure and two recessed storage nooks.

Sounds reasonable – it’s not only tiling, it’s plumbing, consumables, waste disposal (assuming they’re getting rid of the old tiles), fixing the floor.

I agree it sounds cheap. We recently did our kitchen tiles ourselves (by we I mainly mean by Partner) and it is a lot of work

I’m in Yorkshire and tilers are about £250-300 per day. Sounds about right to me. If you’re not sure, get a couple of other prices from recommended tilers.

Sounds a good price to me too. There's a lot if work involved. I've just had my bathroom redone, including a new tiled floor. Turned out I had very slow leaking heating pipes which I'm glad the builder spotted (Victorian downstairs bathroom). So all those were dug up, like an archaeological dig(!) and replaced too. There's generally unexpected repairs to look out for with any job.

Sounds cheap and I’m in NW too

We had our hallway tiled; approx same area as yours. That cost around £650 I recall, not including the cost of the tiles. The original floor covering was vinyl so also didn't involve the hard work of breaking up any existing tiles. So, on refection, your quote seems remarkably cheap. Admittedly our tiles were patterned so that made his harder but even so...
The bloke did a brilliant job though and I'm getting him back to do the rest of the house, including the bathroom. I'm in the NW too for reference.

It’s the demo and fixing of floor that’s the cost I think. If you have a perfectly flat new floor, then tiling straight ontop is relatively easy.
But once renovating all the old stuff needs coming off. Our old floor tiles had been cemented in basically instead of tile adhesive, pretty common to use in the 50s or earlier.
( I say old, it was too expensive to do atm with that quote, so they are still there)

Thanks everyone - really appreciate all the responses!
At least we know now what ballpark figures we're looking at.
