the piece of string question
i know its bit of lottery some of prices i heard i wondered how it could be done. if there was enough work about would stick to private.
 
build up your own rates as any proffessional company would - work out your labour and material costs then simply add the proffit margin you want or if its you doing the work just work out your costs (mats/overheads) into a sq metre unit rate then add your wage rate to your costs rate

i know what your saying been pricing for many a year , have heard many squads just rime off sand/cement prices, skim only,etc, etc was trying to gauge a fair price, as some of the fiqures? seem to be tight to do the jobs. thanks for getting back
 
In bedford area there going in at 3.50 supply and fix on skim, braddons pay 2.40m2 labour only and take retension. somerset, your get around 2.60 labour only but some people on here seem to think they can get 5.00 labour only but there be the ones sat at home. Yes you will get that on a one off job or small extension but on larger runs of work then the above rates are what people are paying .

i remember you saying you would not work for 2.50 m2 dont times change

grand, im not working for that but the amount of work that we have , we had to take the whole contract not just the mp but were not bothered becuase we knew we would find lads to do the job for the rate we wanted to pay. Im not talking about rates for a little couple of houses. One job i priced at £9m2 hardwall and set we didnt get because i was expensive, my price was 49k just for the hardwall and set , then there was over 3000m2 of skim so i know what the market is paying and its the rates quoted
