The cost will depend on how much you pay for your tiles – the adhesive is relatively cheap.

If you’re looking to get someone in, a reputable tile will charge about £150-200 per day, during which time he should get it all done. Any longer than that and he’s ripping you off.

The trickiest part, I found, was grouting, afterwards.

Now, assuming it is on all four walls covering every bit of those walls, 4 ft. high, that would be about 112 square feet. Plus, you always need to buy around 15% waste. So, total you would need to buy 129 square ft. of tile. You also would need Mastic to put the tile on the wall, should cost you $50 or less for enough to tile the area you have. Labor should run you about $500-700 for the removal of the old tile and installation of the new tile. There is however one issue you might not have thought of. If you remove the old tile, it will most likely destroy the walls it is attached to. From the way it sounds, this is old tile that was installed using something called a “mud bed.” This is basically metal wire and weakened concrete. All of this will have to be removed and new sheet-rock or green board will have to be installed. The cost of this would run you another $600-800 in labor and materials. So your worst case scenario, would run you around $1800. If you happen to be in the Atlanta, I would be happy to take a look at the job.

We ordered our tile from http://www.susanjablon.com but I can’t be positive that they deliver to outside of the U.S.A.

I’m thinking about having a bathroom tiled. The bathroom is about 6 by 8 and right now the walls have a horrible pink and black alternating ceramic tile that goes up about 4 feet on the wall all the way around. All I want to do is replace this tile with a glass tile. I have no idea what the cost would be for materials and labor so any estimates would be appreciated. This is the only work I need done.

Very rarely can you replace just the tile. It’s not a simple fix. You may want to look into tile paint, or hiring a professional to refinish them (which also will permanently seal the grout – which means no more mildew on the grout). If you just re-tile you’re looking at hundreds of dollars, possibly more depending on the size of the area you are re-tiling.

I have 10m2 of walls in my bathroom which need tiling with largish (say 20cm x 20 cm) non-patterned tiles. How much should this cost, and how long should it take. I will have already done the necessary plumbing of the new bath, and have taken off the old tiles. (Oxford area).

Also If I could get names of dealers/manufacturers it would be helpful

I m sure you ll have to subtract out for door way, cabinets.. Then I have to know an accurate l/f to figure the bullnose ( S-4269) trim tile since this can really add up in price..
But if you want a REALLY ballpark number, figure 8$ a s/f .. Since it sounds like your doing a wainscot and it ll be in a non wet area, you can go right over your dry wall.. This “price” is really rough, but will include setting and grouting materials, tile and labor.. But w/o the actual s/f and the actual price of the tile this is really rough.
Any questions you can e mail me through my avatar and check my qualifications there. GL

It would require less than ten packs of eight tiles. The tiles cost $128.00.
But How much?

I would like to add subway tiles to my bathroom walls. My bathroom measures 13 1/2 feet long by 5’5″ wide and i’d only be applying the subway tile from the ceiling to about 4′ down….meaning that i’d be using it for the top and putting a molding and then beaded board paneling as wainscotting. Can anyone give me an estimate on how much tile this would be and a price range?
