thank you for your fast response.
from your reply, meaning labour of removing old tile, hacking, apply new cement, installing tile is around Rm 3-5psf (2x)?

thank you

I'm looking for a contractor to retile floor, bathroom walls, , kitchen and backyard.
Some of my 2x2 ft floor  tiles are coming off because the contractor 15 years ago tiled on top of the old terrazzo floor without hacking it. This seemed OK for a number of years, until I had to drill holes in the tiles for termite treatment a few years ago. The other thing that happened 2 years ago was my house got flooded and there was water under the tiles. Then the tiles started coming off a little by little and now I have large patches of tiles that are loose
Anyone has reliable and affordable contractor recommendations?

Hi all any recommendation tiles showroom outlet in KL that provides installation???

I have two wall tiles fell off and I want to DIY to paste it back. Any quick fix advice?

Have anyone use the tile reform (美缝剂) for grout sealant? It's very common in china because it is water repellant and fungus proof. Can match color with your tiles too. Not sure how to request this from my contractor haha

I see, I just asked my contractor they call it coloured grout.

I am not sure what is it called. Can this be fixed?

Hi

I have a question. Dont know if this is even logical or possible.

If existing bathroom tiles are still in good condition but i want to replace them because want to change color / type, is it advisable to hack the existing tiles first or can straight install new tiles on it?

Does anyone have recommendation for tilers in Klang Valley / PJ area?

Am doing a sub-sale home reno currently but having an issue with the main con (supposedly a reputable ID company) regarding the tiling works.
Their standard height for waterproofing at SHOWER area is 1 ft.
Their reasoning is that their tilers informed that if do 6ft waterproofing, the wall tiles may not stick so well and there's risk of hollow/popping tiles. Is this true?

Have tried discussing and trying to come to a resolution and I've suggested either :
1/ continue with their standard 1 ft water proofing but extend the general 1 yr warranty to 3 years warranty for water proofing (that's not too demanding, is it? I understand that most would provide >=5 yrs warranty on waterproofing
2/ do 6ft waterproofing and the general warranty for tiles hollow/popping remains at 1 year

They did not agree to either. If their 1ft water proofing has not been an issue, I don't see why they cant just provide me a 3 year warranty.
For the 6ft waterproofing option, they refuse to provide the 1 yr warranty on any SHOWER tiles that is hollow/popping.

got this tiling quote from my contractor, for a wet kitchen extension. would like to know if it's reasonable?
