Another option is to lay that part last if you are doing major renovation, using balance tiles. My tiler did that for me and it looks surprisingly good.

my kitchen tile during installation...i used expensive tile..i used all white horse..but white horse quality i suppose not so robust...

After looking at many brand and model, I don't think White horse is expensive. They are in mid range. Wait till you see Niro, Feruni, and there another brand can't remember is more expensive than Feruni.

my simple master toilet sink


Attached thumbnail(s)

The contractor quote me RM12 psf for MML tiles including material and workmanship. Is this reasonable?

As for the concrete top table RM180 pfr including the tiles at the bottom. Seems to be pricey thought. What is the current market price right now?

Hi All,
Is it ok to lay the tiles over the mable floor with hacking it ?

Hi there, got a price from a contractor to lay a 800mm x800mm tiles for my living hall. Tiles i buy. Total 86pcs include skirting, water proof, all material, n lower some floor at the main door area. He quote me RM7000. is it reasonable?

Reasonable i guess. But why need waterproofing. Isnt that for toilet only? Another thing, for the skirting, get another color like white. It looks so much better. Nt reli nice if same color as floor.

Reasonable? He said he buy tiles but the contractor quote him 7000 meaning for workmanship only?

Yes, for workmanship only. How?

Ops, my mistake. Also this is using 800 mm tiles, meaning 2 and half feet tiles. Are you sure you want to lay such large tiles? Larger tiles charge differently.

It is not recommended..not long lasting...later 'tercabut'..better remove the mable...

yes. Coz current is 2x2. So plan to put larger. Just wanna know the price

Hi,

Any picture that you cah share with us on the different color skirting ? I am interested to see a picture of this.

Also, I was quoted same price for workmanship to lay 600mmx 600mm or 800mm x 800mm tiles for my living area ? What do you guy think about this ? Which is better ? Any pro or con to use which sizes of tiles ?

Thanks

How is the tiling work calc? If there is windows, will the area minus from the tiling area?

For eg, 20 x 8 with 4 x 6 windows.

Tiling work = (160 - 24) x labour cost?

hi,

last time my renovation was did by mr.tan, his job and workmanship very good.

you may check with him.

tan - 016-2673666

My current porch is like this:

half concrete flooring : 22x12 feet
half grass/weed: 21x13 feet (after minus drain)

I was qouted rm8xxx for the following:

- "dismantle" current concrete flooring and rebuild base, then tiling
- built a 14 x 13 feet base over the grass, then tiling

Note:
- Renovator refuse to have me source own tiles, insist his price will definitely be cheaper than I ever will get anywhere
- He also refused to reveal his itemised tasks and price.
- I havent chosen the tile type yet but he said it will be around rm7.xx per piece (not sure its 1 or 2 square feet each)

Is the price of rm8xxx reasonable?

I've done my house perfectly with Niro tiles. The sales person named Anthony from PJ branch are very helpful and he can give you great ideas on how to lay or design your bathrooms. Glad to have chosen Niro. Loving it...
