Find a bathroom tiling professional in Hobart

Like any other home service, knowing what happens during an actual bathroom tile installation is ideal. After all, bathroom tiling services include a lot more than simply laying out the tiles. Every job will vary, but here’s a list of services you can expect from a standard bathroom tile installation: 

Tile planning and layout 

Your Tasker will likely pay your home or office a visit to assess the bathroom and measure the tiling area. They will plan the layout by determining the number of tiles needed for the job and the order in which the tiles will be laid out. It’s standard practice to buy more than the number of tiles required for backup.  

Feel free to be as detailed as possible when making a post on Airtasker. Your hired Tasker may suggest what type of tile or pattern is best for you. If you’re undecided, some of the most popular tiles in the market are: 

• Porcelain 

• Ceramic 

• Marble 

• Mosaic 

• Limestone 

• Slate

• Vinyl

• Pebble 

• Terracotta 

• Glass 

Retiling 

Removing old tiles is the most time-consuming part of retiling a bathroom. Your Tasker will first cover existing bathroom fixtures such as the toilet and sink with plastic sheeting. They will then use a chisel to remove each tile from the bathroom wall and floor. Once the old tiles are removed, you can have someone dispose of the debris for you. 

The next step is to inspect the cement backer board underneath and replace the board as needed. Your Tasker will then plan the layout and measure the tiles before proceeding to actual tile installation. 

Wall tile installation

What’s great about bathroom wall tiles is that a well-thought-out tile pattern can transform your wall into a work of art. After choosing your tiles and the pattern you want to achieve, your hired expert can start working on wall tile installation.  

Floor tile installation

To achieve the desired results, it’s best to let experts work on your bathroom floor. They will avoid grouting unevenly, cracking the tile, choosing the wrong adhesive, and skipping backer board. Note that it’s important to add a waterproofing membrane to areas that will be exposed to lots of water, such as the shower floor and its walls.
