Kitchen splashbacks
A tiled splashback is one of the most cost-effective ways to lift a kitchen. We plan the set-out around your window, power points, rangehood and benchtop so cuts are balanced and symmetrical — whether it's classic subway, herringbone, vertical stack, zellige-style or patterned tiles.
Kitchen and open-plan floor tiling
Kitchen floors take a beating. We prepare the floor properly (levelling and, on timber floors, a suitable underlay), then lay durable porcelain in the size you choose — including large-format tiles that flow through open-plan living areas. Underfloor heating can go in at the same time.

Kitchen Tiling FAQs
How long does a kitchen splashback take to tile?
Most standard kitchen splashbacks are tiled and grouted within one to two days, depending on size, tile type and the number of cuts around windows and power points.
Can you tile before or after the benchtop goes in?
Splashbacks are tiled after the benchtop and cabinetry are installed. Floors are usually tiled before the kitchen goes in — we'll work to your builder's or kitchen company's schedule.
Do you supply the kitchen tiles?
No — we're installers, not a tile shop. Choose tiles from any supplier and we'll tell you exactly how much to buy.
