How would I check for referees. Would I ask the contractor or google the names to see if their is reviews online??Pre madness it would seem a reasonable costing. Other factors on price would be rural location, local to builder perhaps. As Setanta says you need to check referees and make sure they are suitably qualified tradesmen for the gas and lecky.
Any way you can tell me what in particular was a fraction of my cost? Is your house smaller or did you get it done years ago when it simply costs more today? I don't think it can be much cheaper from shopping around.What do your quotes say? Have you checked referees? (I know I did these when getting some work done myself, it was a fraction of your cost)
Thanks, I have an initial broad quote with the above description but I understand exactly what you are saying. I will be requesting a detailed breakdown of products and specification of all works now at this point before I agree on the fee. I get the quote means nothing until I get a full specification and quantity of materials to see how basic etc.Plumbing in two upstairs bathrooms to include sanitary ware €4,000 - retiling, new toilers and bathroom washhand basins.
This seems very cheap depending on the sizes etc.
Do you have a design / specification or what is the builder pricing against?
How did you get the builder in first place ? Ask him for places he did work already.How would I check for referees.
There is no way internal insulation/plastering of an entire house can be done properly for 4,500
An average sized detached house would cost in the region of €10,000.00 to get plastered only, not insulated, and that's not including scaffolding or materials. If it's in Dublin you can add substantially to that figure and i'm not overpricing it. I'll go further and say that the quote you have is absolutely ridiculous. I genuinely wouldn't be as surprised if there was €100k in front of the €39k and that's in no way having a laugh.That works out at around €110/sqm. I've seen cheaper quotes.

I also thought maybe we could get internal insulation and plastering for maybe around €10K was my best guess. So I also thought the internal insulation price is far far too low. I will be requesting a detailed list to include exactly what is included in the price and specifications in the next week or so and I will post it here.An average sized detached house would cost in the region of €10,000.00 to get plastered only, not insulated, and that's not including scaffolding or materials.
