A part of the floor in our sunroom rotted and the old tile chipped in many places.
The area is approximately 70-80 square feet, on two levels, ground and about 1.5 foot above ground.
70% of floor is above ground, supported by wood joists, 5% is on little stairs, and remaining 25% lays on ground level concrete. This floor surrounds a hot tub.What I want is old tile and plywood torn out, replaced with new 3/4" plywood, and new tile installed properly.
I will pay for all materials. In fact, we already have tile.
MY QUESTION: What I would like to know is the ballpark for LABOR COSTS.
I am getting pissed off as we already wasted a lot of time on contractors who would not come on time, one guy reneged on his promise to start work, etc. One person asked for about $40 per square foot, not including materials, which I suspect is excessive. If worst comes to worst, I will have to do it myself, but I would much rather not.
Still, I want to do one more effort to find a sensible contractor and started calling everyone from yellow pages. I do need an idea of how much it might cost, hence my question.
