Recommendation: Tiler needed urgently

[Newbie!]

We have a tiny little job that we need a tiler for. Probably only 30mins work so tiler would need to be living/working in maynooth to be bothered. If anyone here knows anyone interested, Thanks.

If its only a 30 minute job would it not be worth your while to give it a try yourself.

Your worst effort could not possibly be as bad as my hubby's tiling

Why not put a description of the job up on;

If nothing else the quotes you get might sway you towards Sue Ellens suggestion.

As an aside,

A relation of mine once got an electrician in to quote for what she considered to be a tiny job on her little old fuse board as it was just making crackling noises every now and then.

The quote for the essential house rewire was several thousand €'s and would take 4 days to complete.

Tiles are one thing but electrics (especially crackling ones) and heating are to be steered well clear of

you should drop in to your local, friendly builders merchants - they will know every tradesman in a 10 mile radius

Good suggestion John.
Tiling is easy. Give it a go. YouTube is a great source for tutorials.

Mmmm once bitten, twice shy as regards tiling so definitely would rather call in the professionals.
Also the reason we need a quick fix up is down to the really bad job carried out by someone we hired through tradesmen.ie. That's the second time we've had a bad job from people hired through that site. Also giving that wide berth from now on.

We'll try the local builders providers for recommendations.

It's getting increasing difficult to get a tradesman to do a small job. They are getting so busy again they can't be bothered to do the smaller jobs anymore. If it's a relatively easy job ask the tiler if he has an apprentice who might do it as a nixer.
