What's included in the labour price

  • Substrate assessment at the free site visit, including a tap test of existing tiles
  • Tile layout planning — set out from the centre so cuts are even
  • Setting and levelling the tiles, grouting
  • Applying the waterproof membrane in bathroom shower zones (membrane material priced with materials)
  • Silicone at all corners and transitions in bathrooms
  • Clean-up at the end of the job

Quoted separately, after the site visit: tiles, adhesive, grout, membrane and sealer; re-screeding a slab that is out of level; stripping old tiles and taking the debris away; carving or high-level stone cladding. Minimum job: 5 m².

What makes a tiling quote go up

  • An uneven slab. Levelling a wavy screed is often the biggest hidden job, especially under large-format tiles.
  • Old tiles to remove. Stripping and disposing of an old floor or a failed bathroom adds time before any new tile goes down.
  • Tile format and pattern. Large slabs, mosaics, herringbone and diagonal layouts mean more cuts, waste and care.
  • Wet areas and pools. Membranes, drain falls and immersion-rated systems add steps that dry floors do not need.
  • Natural stone. Dry-laying, stone-rated adhesive and sealing add labour compared with porcelain.
  • Small rooms with many cuts. A 4 m² bathroom with niches and pipes can take longer per m² than an open living room.
  • Access and phasing. Occupied villas, upper floors without a lift and work split around guests all add time.

Tiling price questions

Are your prices for labour only?
Yes. The rates are labour per m² (or per tile for repairs). Tiles, adhesive, grout, membrane and sealer are quoted separately — we can source them at trade prices or use materials you have already bought.
Is there a minimum job size?
Yes, 5 m² for tiling work. Small repairs are priced per tile, from IDR 350,000 with the call-out included.
Do you charge for the site visit or travel?
No. The site visit is free in every area we cover, and there is no travel surcharge — Canggu, Ubud and the Bukit pay the same rates.
Why is pool tiling more expensive per m² than floor tiling?
Pools need immersion-rated adhesive and grout, a waterproofing system checked at every penetration, and very precise setting — every uneven joint shows underwater. That extra work is reflected in the rate.
How do I get an exact price?
Send the area in m², the tile you plan to use, your location and a photo on WhatsApp. We reply with an estimate, visit to check the slab and falls, and then confirm a fixed price in writing before work starts.
