How to Choose a Tiler in Australia

1
Match the job to the right tiler. Some tilers focus on bathrooms and wet areas, others on large floors, outdoor and pool work, or restoration such as regrouting and tile repair. For a leaking shower, look for someone who understands waterproofing to the standard AS 3740; for a big floor, ask about substrate preparation and levelling before any tile is laid.
2
Waterproofing is the hidden half of any wet-area job. In a bathroom the membrane under the tiles is what keeps water out of the walls and the room below, and it must be installed to the standard AS 3740 before tiling. Ask who does the waterproofing and whether that work is certified, because this is where cheap jobs quietly fail.
3
Check licensing and insurance. In Queensland, wall and floor tiling and waterproofing are licensed through the QBCC, while in most other states tiling itself is not separately licensed, so ask for public liability insurance, a written workmanship warranty and recent reviews. A tiler who welcomes these questions is usually the safer choice.
4
Get more than one written quote. Prices vary widely with the tile, the size of the area, the preparation needed and who supplies the materials, so compare at least two or three written quotes that spell out what is included. Confirm whether waterproofing, surface preparation, materials and rubbish removal are in the price or charged as extras.
5
Judge the setting out and finish, not just the price. Good tiling shows in level lines, even grout joints, cuts hidden in the least visible spots, and silicone rather than rigid grout in the flexible corners. Ask to see photos of recent work, and order about ten percent extra tiles for cuts, breakages and future repairs.

Frequently Asked Questions About Tilers

It depends on the tile you choose, the size and preparation of the area, whether waterproofing is needed and who supplies the materials. A small splashback is a very different job from a full bathroom or a large outdoor area. The only reliable way to price a job is to compare written quotes, and many tilers quote for free.

Yes. Australian rules require wet areas such as showers and bathroom floors to be waterproofed to the standard AS 3740 before tiling. The membrane goes on first and is left to cure, then the tiles are laid over it. Skipping or rushing this step is the most common cause of leaks behind bathroom walls.

It varies by state. In Queensland, wall and floor tiling and waterproofing are licensed trades through the QBCC, while in most other states tiling itself is not separately licensed. Because there is not always a licence to check, insurance, a written workmanship warranty, reviews and an ABN lookup are the practical ways to vet a tiler.

Sometimes, if the existing tiles are sound and firmly stuck and the levels allow it, but in a wet area most tilers prefer to strip back to the substrate so the waterproofing can be renewed. Tiling over also raises floor and wall levels. A tiler will assess the surface and tell you whether a tile-over will work.

Either works. Many people choose and buy their own tiles from a showroom and pay the tiler for labour and materials like adhesive, grout and the membrane, while others ask the tiler to supply everything. Agree who is buying what, and order about ten percent extra for cuts, breakages and future repairs.

It depends on the size and type of job. A splashback might be a day, while a full bathroom takes several days because the waterproofing has to cure before tiling and the adhesive and grout each need time to set. A tiler should give you a realistic schedule rather than promising a full bathroom in a day.
