Our Most Frequently Asked Questions
General Tiling FAQ's
How much does tiling cost per square metre in NSW?
The cost of tiling can vary depending on tile type, surface preparation, and the complexity of the job. On average, you can expect anywhere from $35–$120 per m². We provide detailed, obligation-free quotes so you know exactly what to expect.
Do you provide free quotes?
Yes, we offer free quotes across Inverell, New England and North West NSW. Simply call, text, email, or submit an enquiry and we’ll organise a time to assess your project.
How long does a typical tiling project take?
Small projects like splashbacks and hearths can be completed in 1–2 days, while larger areas such as bathrooms may take 1–2 weeks, allowing for waterproofing and curing times. Outdoor and commercial projects vary depending on scale.
Do I need to supply the tiles, or can you source them?
Most clients prefer to choose and supply their tiles, but we’re more than happy to recommend suppliers and help you select the right option for your space and budget.
Preparation & Process FAQs
Do I need to prepare the area before tiling starts?
We handle all surface preparation, including cement screeds and levelling where necessary. You’ll just need to clear furniture, appliances, or personal items from the work area before we arrive.
Do you provide waterproofing before tiling?
Yes - waterproofing is a crucial part of bathroom, laundry, and some outdoor tiling projects. We use professional, compliant systems and the highest quality products to protect your home from leaks and moisture damage.
Can you tile over existing tiles?
In many cases, yes. If the existing tiles are in good condition and properly bonded, we can tile over them. If not, we’ll recommend removal for the best long-term result.
Will tiling create much mess or disruption?
We aim to minimise disruption as much as possible. Some dust and noise is unavoidable, but we keep the site tidy and clean up thoroughly once the project is complete.
Aftercare & Maintenance FAQs
How do I clean and maintain my tiles?
Tiles are low maintenance - simply wipe them down with warm water and mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals, as they can damage grout and sealants.
How long does grout and silicon last?
With proper care, grout and silicon can last many years. Over time, they may need refreshing, especially in wet areas. We can assist with re-grouting or resealing if required.
Do outdoor tiles need sealing?
Some outdoor tiles, like natural stone, require sealing to protect them from the elements. Porcelain and ceramic options are usually more resistant. We’ll advise you on the best maintenance plan for your tiles.
Can waterproofing fail over time?
Waterproofing is designed to last for many years if installed correctly. However, poor installation or movement in building structures can cause issues. That’s why professional application and the highest quality products are critical - something we guarantee on every project.
