    Hello,

    First post here, so please bear with...

    I'm looking to get 50m2 of stone floor laid in DE72 postcode. Not really sure of costs for both the stone and the laying.
    Any help gratefully received

    Cheers
     
  2. I have a pile of stones outside my house. I'll lay them on your floor for now't.

    Or, to put it another way, more info please.

    What type of 'stone' and on what type of floor?

    (Not that I'll be able to answer you anyways. Except with a sarcy remark...)

    Thanks for that devils advocate :/

    The choice of stone would depend on cost so.....

    Ideally it'd be rustic as its to go in a Victorian cottage.
     
  4. You're welcome :)

    Is the existing floor solid - concrete - or a suspended timber floor (floorboards)?

    Can you find some samples of the type you'd like, perhaps from a few different price ranges?

    Solid concrete floors, was thinking maybe tumbled unfilled travertine tiles around £30 m2?
     
  6. Cool. Now we have something to work on.

    As long as we have a tiler to answer... :oops:

    Have you got enough head room to fit the new floor over the old.

    Has the old floor got any form of insulation/DPM beneath it.

    Is the 50M2 in one area, or different rooms.

    Is the area all straight walls, or is it in and out of alcoves, fire places etc.

    Are existing floor nice and level.

    So many things to think about before offering a price, but expect anything from £80.00M2 through to maybe £200.00M2, supply and lay, depending on slabs/tiles and type of finish required, ie: butt jointed or pointed joints.
