What to check on the quote
Two quotes only compare when they cover the same thing. These points often separate a complete offer from one that ends in extras.
Laying, supply and preparation listed separately
The laying price per m², the price of the tiles and the base preparation appear on separate lines.
Format and pattern
Large format, mosaic, diagonal laying: more cuts, so more hours. The quote states the format and the pattern.
Waterproofing in wet areas
In a shower or around a bath, waterproofing under the tiles is planned before laying.
Finishing details
Skirting, threshold profiles, movement joints: each finish is priced, otherwise it comes back as an extra.
The company number
The quote shows the company's CBE number. Check it on the public search of the Crossroads Bank for Enterprises before you sign.
VAT, deposit and validity
The quote states the VAT rate applied, any deposit and how long the price is guaranteed.
