I did my tiling last year. The labour cost was by size. 60cm x 60cm is RM13.50 psf with sand screeding for floor, RM8.50psf without plastering for wall. For cutting 45 degree for the edge, it was RM8 per foot run. Remember to ask what brand and type of cement gum and grout lines for tiling. Weber? Sika? MAPEI? Even for the same brand, there are different grades.

The labour cost is RM13.50 psf but this rate is for the size of 60x60. Larger size e.g. 120 x 60 cm, the supplier charged higher rate. Usually, larger size is thicker and heavier.

13.50 including the sand and cement floor screeding but excluding waterproofing. For tiling on the floor, this has to be done together by the tiling contractor because they need to make sure water flow directions towards the floor traps.

I did get three quotations to compare. If the tiling is done purely by local Chinese, the cost was even higher. Mine was done by both local Chinese and Pakistani. The local Chinese marked the floor levels to ensure my sliding doors were levels. For my ensuite bathrooms, there are three levels, shower areas, the dry bathroom (WC, basin, and etc), and then bedroom timber floors.

To be honest to you, I am very satisfied with the installer because all jointing parts for the tiling, e.g. door frame, sliding doors, and etc are good.
