Floor Tiling in Adelaide

Most floor tiling problems start underneath the tiles, not on top. If the substrate is not clean, sound and level, no amount of good tiling will save the finish. This is exactly where cheap operators cut corners and where the tilers we refer earn their keep.

A level floor matters more the bigger your tiles are. Large-format tiles show every dip and hump as lippage, where one tile edge sits proud of the next. That is why a good tiler will check the floor with a straightedge and level it before a single tile goes down.

The best floor tile depends on where it is going. Porcelain is denser and harder than ceramic, which makes it the go-to for busy Adelaide households, wet areas and anywhere that takes a hammering. Ceramic can be a fine, more affordable choice for lower-traffic rooms.

Slip resistance matters too, especially in kitchens, laundries and entryways that get wet. A good tiler will talk you through the practical trade-offs, but the tilers we refer are there to lay the floor, so you stay in control of the tile choice.

Floor tiling is usually priced per square metre laid, plus extras for removal, levelling and waste. Two quotes for the same floor can differ by thousands, and the cheapest is often the one that skips the prep you cannot see.

Comparing a few quotes lets you spot the outliers and understand what you are really paying for. We make that easy by matching you with vetted tilers who quote on the same job, so you are comparing like with like.
