also to add, rm3.50 tiles assumingly for 1x2 tiles will most probably b grade B. but it's fine tho, as it is not necessary for grade A @ porch

Yeah to add, at least go for lappato/rough/stoned surface. obviously not polished surface

yes, but 2x2 for rm2.50? it doesnt even seem possible. even a 'reputable' grade B tile is around rm7-8. AFAIK, cheapest tile would be polished and white/cream tone. other surfaces = more expensive. guess lady luck is on ur side

rate is around rm3-4/psf for 1x1 tiles, rm4-6 for 2x2 tiles..so u can just multiply the area needed to be tile. In tiling, usually the 'window' area is included. doesnt sound fair rite? just give and take.

usually..it's around rm4-5psf for 1x2 and 2x2 tiles..so juz manually multiply ur area

quite a few from Whitehorse. u can view them @website

so my living area tiles came popping out after 10yr. (known issue of cost cutting sub con job) . of all time during EMCO, had to bear with it while removing broken/tilted tiles by myself.

Juz had an indon worker came to have a look on it. better to redo the whole hall. according to him, the 'old' glue mixture need to be chiseled out first and then new cement layer will be poured over before any tiling job. area is around 500sq ft,

a)can estimate of cost for this job? excluding tile and installing tile job
b)any reliable online website to check estimate pricing of tile?
c) i did ask if i opt for SPC flooring, the 'old' glue still need to be removed then only new cement layering job can be done. correct? so in a way, prep cost for tile and SPC is the same..

thank you

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 was thinking of another option of doing spc flooring. Is it possible to juz remove the tiles and do cement layer leveling ( without hacking off the old glue)? Will it bond or cause other problems in future?
