Quality

Our commitment to quality is not negotiable. We don't price to win at the expense of quality, therefore we would rather be involved with contractors in their Value Engineering efforts and help make the best of their budgets by leveraging our experience and technical expertise.
This is the only way we can price competitively without risking the end product!

Programming

A Contractor's investment in Project Management is proportional to how much deadlines are valued. We recognise that investment from our partners and we do our best to schedule our works accordingly. Being last in the value chain poses frequent challenges to Tilers, we know that all too well to risk wasting your time. Programming matters and we invest in it as much as you do!

Safety

Safety is key while on site and on the long term usage of the spaces we tile. We employ highly qualified tilers to ensure both and we can only do that by working with the best in the business, paying fair rates and putting quality over quantity.

Technical

There are many technically complex details when pricing or executing a project. With large format, thin tiles and other technical innovations becoming more common, it is our commitment to become knowledgeable and be updated by the time our partners ask us if we can employ these techniques. We invest regularly in training for our key people, so that we are always prepared.
Our technical expertise also has a more direct impact on pricing as we can actively help you find better or alternative technical solutions for your projects, making a better use of your budget.

COST
Transparent pricing is key to specialist ceramics, we provide information on everything.
materials
When pricing a project, the choice of materials is of the utmost importance as it has a direct impact on fitting time, supply and delivery on site, wastage and skill needed to fit.
shape
The shape of tiles is also relevant for pricing. Proper fitting requires planning, to ensure minimum waste and premium aesthetics with a quality finish. The more complex the shape of both tiles and areas to be fitted, the more planning the job requires.
substrate
The base material upon which tiles will be fitted must always be considered in pricing as it may need preparation or special adhesive solutions. If this is not accounted for and the wrong fitting materials or techniques are used, quality and longevity will be compromised.
accessibility
How easy or how hard it is to bring people, materials and any other resources to site is also something to take into consideration when pricing a project. Is the location accessible? How many floors will you be tiling? Is there an elevation mechanism or will materials be moved by hand? How centralised is storage? Is water available across site or just at a few locations? Everything needs to be accounted for and this is why site visits are of extreme importance when pricing.
