I wonder if we can still preserve the tiles to be reused after hacking/taking them out?

any contractor can recommend?

Hi,

ur house reno at how much? his work quality ok? coz i scare those din do proper and simply reduce the material without we notice.

what is the common tiles brand used? i have zero knowledge about tiles? i saw that specific area used different type of tiles? Anyone can share?

Super Budget - China Tiles for Wall and non-wet areas
Budget - White Horse
Medium - Goucera
High - MML / Niro Granite

The price and quality matches. U can see the difference when you go into the shop respective showroom. The difference is the density, finishing and thickness. Hence the outcome quality is big difference. Most of the medium and high end type has many different designs that cater to your taste.

Only porch u need to get a higher loading for your vehicles worry it will crack. Other than that no issues. Just don't use super budget ones from china to put on the floor. If crack very troublesome.

woah, thanks for your reply. we are not think to use super budget coz it is too many brand of tiles make me feel noticed that people said different area use different type of tiles. if living room, bed room and porch tiles material will be different right?

No such thing. Only porch is different, others all can be the same for flooring. For wall, any material of tiles can be used. I only used 1 brand for the whole house, just different design.

Some even use the same material for all flooring including porch.

which brand u use? the quality ok?

WH. U don't need to worry about the quality, all of them no issues for home use. Budget ones might have consistencies issues as they might not be equal sometimes, but cannot be seen with naked eye unless u use machine to check the inconsistencies.

u pay for what u get. my parents home uses it for more than 20 years no issues at all. tile is one of the most long lasting thing in a house.

ok, thanks for your info.. i am trying to survey on the raw material now..the tiles, paint, i think is most important part right?

For both new house and subsale, to me most important is cover the basics first, e.g electrical,water pipe and LEAKAGE. Test your electrical and water before doing anything. If u got water leak or electrical load is not sufficient, it is important to replace them first before doing anything to cover the walls or floors.

because once u lay ur tiles and repaint them and find out this later, u need to whack the tiles and redo, then repaint. waste of $



Don't think new house handed by developer won't have such issues. Later when u do everything only u realise got these problem is too late

i was so new with this renovation thing, thanks for your reminder.. my house was a subsale house, sure the problem will be more...

Want to ask, does car porch tiles need BRC concrete slab?

Guys, I wanna ask. Is it possible for us to paint the tiles that already installed? I watched a lot of Youtube videos and see many of them painted their bathroom. Not only coast effective but easy to do it.

Any advice from sifus??

Thanks

Feruni has been mentioned in this forum before so went to check out the Petaling Jaya shop yesterday.

One thing I like about the joint is the fact they have multiple showcase setups in their sprawling gallery showing how the tiles would look like with various fittings and furniture thrown in.

Once you have chosen the tiles you want, Feruni will offer you 3D drawings to show you how the tiles would look with various items thrown together. It's a free service, I was told.

They have tiles from China, Spain and Italy, so lots of choices to see. But then too many choices sometimes can be confusing and makes it even harder to choose. In the final analysis, it's better to have more options than less.

Was surprised to see company founder and MD Datuk CC Ngei attending to me....at first i thought he was one of the workers there.....Pleasant, humble chap and no airs about him.

Hi, how about super ceramic , do they have good tile and good price

What about their pricing bro?? Considered cheap or pricey?

I wont say cheap. Theres enuf product diversity to cater to those looking for quality tiles at reasonable prices. for those with deeper pockets looking for higher end/unusual/Euro products, Feruni also caters to them. No nego, prices are fixed.

At end of day, you get what you pay more.

Hi,

Please advise what is current market price for tiling work (include all materials to cement and labor, I buy own tiles 1x1) for flooring.
I have tried hard to search such info over the internet, no good luck at all.

Many Thanks.

I want to redo car porch tiling 18' x 26', a contractor quoted to hack and retile at RM15 psq (excluding tiles cost), can anyone let me know whether this is reasonable? My house in Klang and my porch currently unable to drain water after heavy rain
