Hmm, tricky. I have no idea what a pro would charge. The floor prep was a massive and messy job but that's unique to my particular building. Laying the field was straightforward and took an hour or two. The only two problems were getting it done quickly in section because the Mapei adhesive goes off in 15 minutes, and making sure everything sat level and straight. That is a lot harder with the mosaics than full-size tiles. The field border was easy with spacers, but needed one or two cut and the black edging was a total pain in the arse, requiring everything to be cut and measured in advance so it could all be laid before the adhesive went off. And cutting everything took hours, but I'm not a professional, so it was my first go.

Just out of professional interest, how much do you think is a reasonable price for that job? excluding materials and given what you know now. I know what I'd be inclined to quote but I'd be interested to know what value you would give it.
