    I charge £15 sqm for straight LVT and usually the same for things like amtico fieldstone and similar patterns with a lot of feature strips in them. Am I too cheap for these kind of patterns?

    cheers

    £15 is about right for straight lay but then upwards from that.

    Yes I know £15 is right for straight lay, and my 45/parquet prices are more. I’m asking specifically about patterns with a lot of stripping in that seem to take for ever? I have been charging £15 sqm for these also but thinking I need to up it as it is more time consuming than straight lay?

    If it's just tiles with one strip between each one, then it's the same as straight lay, after that i tend to look at each job and add extra of around 30 per hour for extra work involved
