Any tilers on here?
Anyone able to give me a rough guide for the price a tiler would charge per square meter etc

I know tilers and i tile myself even though it's not my trade and very rarely they do it by square meter-age but from memory and Wales rates it's about 30-40 quid a square meter.If i do a tiling job i price it by each wall or on a daily rate, usually 120 a day.Hope that helps.

Also it depends on the condition of your walls or floor.Often enough if the walls are poor then you'll find them doing patchwork plastering or re-screeding the floor, which will bump the price up.

Walls are quite flat but not square. Tiles are square and 33cm. Not sure if that makes a difference. I'm a plumber but the ones I see doing the tiling in work don't look great so don't want them to do work in my house

If the walls aren't square then you might get the cuts in the corners running out slightly depending on out of square they are.I've tiled walls where they're so out of square the bottom cut could be 80mm and by the time you get to the top they're almost a full tile.I then wish i'd dry lined the walls in the first place but usually customers don't want the extra expense and hassle.I've set up by myself now doing the bathroom cladding and respotex and the customers love it.No dirty grout lines like you get with tiles eventually and maintenance free.Have you thought about that instead?
