my contractor will put on white horse tiles for me,
Any recommended series for living rooms and car porch?
Prefer simple color and plain white/vanilla for floor and grey for car porch.

Anyone know how heavy is one box of 2x2 tiles (4 pieces), can normal car take 8 box ?

depends what tiles.. niro granite tiles are heavier than gyocera for example.. 2x2 on the box of my tiles says 22.8kgs.. its 3pcs per box though..

Thank for sharing, can gauge abit. 8 boxes will be like carrying 2 big fella over 100kg inside my car.

guys, what happens when the tiles developer used is only a "development batch" ie they only produce one-off for the housing project?

some of the kitchen and bathroom tiles in my new house are broken and the supplier (Guocera) says they don't have it anymore. same goes for the developer's contractors (I wonder how they do repair rectification works without extra stock in hand?)

i'm stuck in a rut here and hope to get some advice.

Today I got quota on my kitchen top And bottom
15ftx2ftxRM35=RM2100(rm35psf-labour + remove old old top & put in new tiles) no including all raw all material ( cement, sand, susu, kayu, I sendiri beli)


Is this good deal? For tiles labour cost only?? RM2100

Need some advises... I just get the quotation from a contractor.
For 110sqft (ultility balcony), using white horse 1X2 is RM2100? ( includins tiles and cement sand etc)
Is this reasanable?? i find it quite pricey

Including the wall or just floor area ? My 200sq ft kitchen floor area only need about RM600++ for 2x2 tiles. Labour only RM350.

only the floor, if including skirting is rm2300.... OMG.... think i do not need to consider this contractor anymore...

If you ask me, the price too cheap to be believe.

Anyway don't only compare $$$, other like quality, what included, what the site like, and is there water proofing? Labor job is not apple to apple comparison.

Most important, all few quote if the job are big.

depends on tiles type..but normally complete 1ft x 1ft tiles complete install around rm3.50..

Hi all,

i have about 300 sqft bedroom that needed tiles. i've been quoted by 2 contractors giving me a price of rm3000 including hacking, disposing (there's no tiles previously there), tiles (not sure what grade probably cheaper ones), cement, sand and everything. one of them (recommend by the tiles shop) charged rm 2000 for workmanship only w/o cement and sand.

So, please give me your expert advise whether this is on the high side or not since i'm a noob in this renovation stuff. thanks.

Added on December 13, 2012, 6:32 pmRM 3,000.00 for 300sf for 1' x 1' tiles is considered as reasonable.For 1' x 2' or bigger size of tiles it is considered as cheap.
RM 2,000 for workmanship only is reasonable but remember times permitting that you'll have to buy all those materials.

Check thestar newspaper yesterday, I think got advertisement on tiles sales. Can't remember which shop now.

I have a Niro tiles voucher that entitle owner 38% discount off retail price at puchong shop. Pm me if interested.

I intended to do:

Removed the existing parquets (200sf) in the masterbed room and replace with 1" x 1" tiles.

I was told that some hacking work is required in order to make the tiles to fit in nicely. Parquets is not that thick, and if you add in cement + tiles, the floor will be higher, so I may have problem to lock the door.

I also want to do skirting for the whole unit, approximately 150ft".

Anyway can PM me their best offer ?

Thank you.
