La Carreleuse/The Tile Woman

Mr D, the architect, forwarded me the quote of the Mrs C, the tile woman. Its over 9000 euros including material and work. She made an error on the quote by charging for 30m2 when we only have 10m2; she also omitted a few things that we discussed. So the quote was misleading and I don't think we are going to work with her. The main thing thought is that she was gonna purchase the tiles via a local builders merchant (that Mr D and I are boycotting because they are rip off artists) and not directly with the tile manufacturer. She did not understant that everyone's margin was being lowered by using an intermediary and that it was important to have a working relationship with the manucfacturer... oh well, NEXT!
