Now that the long-awaited house keys are finally in your hands, you can sit back and relax. Well, not until you ensure that you’ve got the best tiling contractor doing the renovation work!
There are many great contractors out there, some available online and others a little more obscure.
In this article, we will cover pricing, services available, specialisation (if any), and reviews, to help you make an informed decision about which tiling contractor you choose to turn to.
When it comes to pricing, it ranges from as low as $4 per square feet to “request for a quote”. This is because getting the tiles done isn’t a grab-and-buy process.
These contractors have to understand what you are looking for before they can advise you on your next steps to achieving your dream home.

“I have engaged Concept Tiling for tiling works in my BTO flat and I have to say I am impressed by Leon’s impeccable service, response, and dedication to complete the works. He had gone miles to make sure that things are on a good track. I will highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a tiler!” – Phyllis Lye
“Reasonable price for repairing a chipped tile and a few hollow tiles. The mechanic has reassessed a few hollow tiles and provided valuable advice not to remove them. This is because the adhesive is still intact and the hollow sound is from the bottom.” – William Ang

“We used The Floor Gallery for the first time and we were impressed with the service all the way through by Jonathan. I had not known Jonathan before I talked with him in his shop in Waterford. He arranged everything as we laid a new Luxury Vinyl Tile floor which requires some preparatory work by a carpenter. The fitter was in particular excellent very professional and took care to get a high finish on this LVT floor.” – Leslie Brown
