ᐅ Tiles up to X euros – what does that mean?

Hello,

I am currently gathering quotes from different house building companies. During this process, the question about tiles came up several times. Some companies state in their scope of work that tiles up to, for example, 30 € per square meter (about 3 USD per square foot) are included. Other companies even asked me how much they should include for tiles in the offer. On the internet, I find many different tile prices. However, I do not know where the various building companies source their tiles or what prices they get there. Therefore, I wonder if the contractor orders the tiles from the places where I might have seen tiles within the given price range or if they only use their own suppliers, meaning I can only guess the price.

It would be very helpful for me to understand how this generally works and maybe find sources to get an idea of the price level that matches the building companies’ supply channels.

Thank you very much.

For us, 60x60cm (24x24 inches) was COST-NEUTRAL...

In the end, it doesn’t really matter as long as you know beforehand. Either way, the general contractor or the tiler will have factored it into the price.
