Tiling costs?

Just looking for ball-park figure for partial tiling of kitchen walls.
About 3-4 sq metres, between worktops/cupboards, and continuing to same height around window. total of 3 sockets and a cooker hood to accommodate.
The area is currently untiled & the plaster is sound.
The tiles I'd like are 400mm x 250mm with a geometric pattern, which makes me unwilling to try to do it myself: I've tiled a bathroom but haven't had to work with such large tiles, especially when I have the sockets & the pattern to consider.
What would be a reasonable charge (labour only) for this please? NW, east of Manchester.

Absolute minimum of £150 a day - one day to fit, one day to grout.
Unless you can get someone to fit only, leaving the grouting to you.0 -
I had similar done about 2 years ago (North Staffordshire area), cost me £200 and took a day and a half.

Its probably only half a day to grout. You may find a tiler to charge half a day, but expect to be charged a day for it. Including materials, expect to pay up to £350Eat vegetables and fear no creditors, rather than eat duck and hide.0
