Marion sits in a part of the south where two kinds of home live side by side. There are the original brick and brick-veneer houses from the 1960s and 70s on the established streets, and there are the newer estate builds and subdivisions that have gone up around Oaklands Park, Sturt and the surrounding pockets. The tiling each one needs is quite different, so it pays to be matched with a tiler who has worked on both.

Tilers Adelaide connects you with vetted, licensed tilers who cover Marion and the wider south, from Oaklands Park and Warradale across to Sturt, Seacombe Gardens and Mitchell Park.

What Marion tiling looks like

The older Marion homes were built when kitchens and bathrooms were smaller and floors were laid over timber or early concrete. When these get renovated, the real work is often in the prep: levelling an uneven floor, dealing with an old bathroom that was never properly waterproofed, and matching new tiles into a space that was never square to begin with. A good local tiler prices that prep honestly rather than being surprised by it halfway through.

The newer estate homes are a different job again. Large-format porcelain floors, open-plan living, big alfresco areas off the back, and glass or stone splashbacks are the common requests. Here the skill is in laying large tiles flat with no lippage, getting the falls right on an outdoor area, and finishing a splashback so the joins line up with the cabinetry. Marion covers both worlds, so the right tiler for your home depends on which one you are in.

Common tiling jobs in Marion

The kinds of jobs local Marion tilers we refer are asked for most.

Kitchen splashbacks

Glass, subway and stone splashbacks tiled to line up cleanly with the benchtop and cabinetry.

Outdoor and alfresco

Alfresco and patio tiling laid with proper falls and slip-rated tiles for the entertaining areas out the back.

Large-format floors

Big porcelain floor tiles laid flat with no lippage across open-plan living in the newer estate homes.

Bathroom renovations

Full bathroom tiling and compliant waterproofing for both the older homes and the newer builds.

Floor levelling and prep

Levelling uneven and timber-over floors in the older Marion houses before the new tiles go down.

Repairs and regrouting

Fixing cracked, lifting and drummy tiles and refreshing tired grout in older wet areas.

Splashbacks and alfresco, the two Marion favourites

Two jobs come up again and again around Marion. The first is the splashback, usually as part of a kitchen refresh in either an older home or a newer one. Whether it is glass, mosaic, subway or a stone finish, the difference between a good splashback and an average one is in the detail: clean cuts around power points, joins that follow the cabinetry, and grout that matches the look you are after. It is a small area where sloppy work shows immediately.

The second is outdoor alfresco tiling. So many south homes have an entertaining area off the back, and getting it right means slip-rated tiles, the correct falls so water runs away from the house, and the right substrate and adhesive for a surface that lives in the weather. Get any of those wrong and the area becomes slippery, or water pools, or tiles lift after a couple of summers. A tiler who does alfresco regularly will get all three right.

Tiling in Marion: common questions

Do you have tilers who cover Marion and the southern suburbs?
Yes. We match you with vetted tilers who cover Marion and the wider south as part of their regular area, including Oaklands Park, Warradale, Sturt, Seacombe Gardens and Mitchell Park. Just tell us where your job is.
Can you help with a kitchen splashback in Marion?
Absolutely. Splashbacks are one of the most common jobs in the area. We connect you with tilers experienced in glass, subway, mosaic and stone splashbacks who cut cleanly around power points and line the joins up with your cabinetry.
I want outdoor alfresco tiling. What should I look for?
Outdoor areas need slip-rated tiles, correct falls so water runs away from the house, and the right substrate and adhesive for a surface exposed to the weather. The tilers we refer do alfresco tiling regularly and will get those details right so it lasts.
My Marion home is older with an uneven floor. Is that a problem?
It is very common in the older Marion homes and it is not a problem for an experienced tiler, but it does need proper levelling and prep before the tiles go down. A good local tiler will assess the floor and price the prep honestly upfront rather than discovering it partway through.
