Choosing a residential tiling service in Sydney


While we use it every day, people rarely pay attention to the floor or wall tiling in their home – that is, unless it's stained, damaged, or just doesn’t look right. That’s exactly what’s at stake when looking for a floor or wall tiling service in Sydney.


The truth is, faulty fitting and low-grade tiles can stick out like a sore thumb, and it’s going to be hard to ignore these features whenever you enter the room. Choosing a bad tiling service in Sydney can easily turn what should have been a slick-looking interior into a total eyesore, apart from being a waste of money, time, and resources.


The solution – just hire professional tiling services. If this is your first time, then you’re probably asking, “How does one choose a reliable tiling service in Sydney?” Well, here are a few factors that you need to consider before you sign on the dotted line for residential tiling in Sydney.


Don’t Hire a Mate

Yes, this sounds harsh, but if your mate (or your mate’s mate) doesn’t have a good grip on tiling work, then it’s not going to be worth it. Reason one – your mate is probably not licensed, which means that if anything goes wrong, you’re on your own. Besides that, it doesn’t make sense to let someone who doesn’t have any professional experience have a go at residential tiling in Sydney. If you are looking for a great finish, then hire professional (and licensed) tilers in Sydney.


Tilers Should be Good Listeners

You walk into a house that needs a tiling job, and while it’s obvious why you’re there, every homeowner has specific requirements and expectations when it comes to a tiling job. Only a professional tiler who listens to their client will know what those requirements and expectations are and how to recreate their client’s vision. Apart from that, a good tradesman always listens to the client and will make suggestions and offer guidance to ensure the client’s expectations are met.


Choose an Experienced Residential Tiler in Sydney

Hiring a professional for a tiling project is going to be a significant investment, which means you will have to hire the right person for the job. One of the best ways to make sure you’re hiring an experienced tiling service in Sydney is by asking around and comparing services. Professional tilers build their reputation over time by delivering excellent work consistently, and usually get most of their work through referrals from satisfied customers.


These customers also usually leave reviews online, which helps other people gauge the level of quality they can expect when hiring the tiling service. To make sure you hire an experienced residential tiler in Sydney and not some fly-by-night service provider, go online and read the reviews left by past customers.


The more positive reviews a tiling service in Sydney has, the better service you can expect, while negative reviews left by disgruntled past clients should be the first red flag to watch for when choosing a residential tiler in Sydney.


Visit Their Website

While you’re at it, visit the website of the tiling services in Sydney that you’ve shortlisted. The overall design and appearance of the company’s website should tell you all you need to know about the tiling company. The website should be easy to navigate and must contain all the information one would need when hiring tilers in Sydney.


The website must also include the tiling service’s mailing address along with a valid email address and phone number. If the tiling service provider has any certifications, those should also be displayed on the website. If it’s not, then don’t shy away from asking them questions about their credentials and experience.


Pricing

The cost of a residential tiling service in Sydney is always going to be one of the main factors that determine whether you go with a tiling service. To know what you’re getting into when choosing tiling services in Sydney, it’s best to go with those options that offer precise quotes or packages upfront, without any hidden charges or additions to the quote later on. Once you have made a choice of the tiling service you want to hire, contact them and ask for a quote.


Most professional tilers in Sydney will offer an estimated quote initially, and an exact cost of the tiling once they’ve inspected your house and the area that needs to be tiled or re-tiled. And don’t forget to get the quote and the agreement in writing. This will save you from any legal wranglings later on.




Ending Note

Getting tiles installed in a new home or replacing old tiles is going to be a significant investment, which means that you’ll want to get it right the first time. Luckily, there are professional tilers in Sydney who have worked with large building companies, homeowners, and granny flat specialists, who can help turn your vision into reality, and it doesn’t have to cost you an arm and a leg either.


When it comes to residential tiling in Sydney, all tiling work is completed according to the building codes and Australian standards, so you can rest assured on the highest quality standards whether you’re looking for bathroom tiling, kitchen tiling, wall, and floor tiling, outdoor tiling, pool tiling, waterproofing, re-grouting, grout cleaning and sealing, cement bedding, or epoxy grouting.
