My Services
Kitchens are the heart of the home. Good tiling makes them easier to clean and nicer to cook in. I’ve tiled kitchens from tiny apartment galleys to massive entertainer ones. Each one needs the right approach.
Just finished a splashback in Marrickville this morning. White subway tiles with dark grout – classic look that won’t date. Started at 8am, customer was making lunch in her new kitchen. Love jobs that go perfectly.
What I offer:
- Same-day splashback installation
- Work around your schedule
- Clean workspace (you can cook that night)
- Fair prices upfront
- Help choosing tiles
- Quality that lasts
Service Details
Kitchen Splashback Tiling
The most common kitchen job. A new splashback protects walls and transforms your kitchen’s look. Most splashbacks I finish in one day.
Yesterday did a herringbone pattern splashback in Neutral Bay. Bit more complex but stunning result. Customer had been putting it off for years – wished she’d done it sooner.
Splashback services:
- Full splashback installation
- Window sill tiling
- Behind cooktop feature
- Tile to ceiling options
- Remove old splashback
Standard splashback from $480
Floor Tiling
Kitchen floors cop a beating – spills, dropped items, constant traffic. Need proper installation with the right tiles and adhesive.
Last week tiled a Parramatta kitchen floor. Previous vinyl was worn and lifting. Now has porcelain tiles that’ll last 20+ years and look good doing it.
Floor tiling includes:
- Floor preparation/leveling
- Heavy-duty adhesive
- Tiles suitable for kitchens
- Proper sealing
Kitchen floor from $1,200
Full Wall Tiling
Some kitchens suit full wall tiling – restaurants, serious cooks, or just the look you want. More work but dramatic results.
Did a chef’s home kitchen in Surry Hills. Tiled all walls for easy cleaning. Looks like a professional one but with style. He loves it.
Wall tiling options:
- Splashback to ceiling
- All walls
- Feature walls
- Pantry areas

Tile Selection
Popular Choices
- Subway Tiles – Classic choice. White most popular but comes in many colours. Easy to clean, timeless look. About $45/m² supply and install.
- Large Format – Modern look, fewer grout lines. Makes kitchens look bigger. Need experienced installer (that’s me).
- Natural Stone – Marble, travertine beautiful but need sealing. I explain maintenance requirements honestly.
- Mosaic Feature – Great for behind cooktop. Adds personality. Bit more labour but worth it for the look.
Practical Considerations
- Gloss easier to clean than matt
- Dark grout hides stains better
- Rectified edges for minimal grout lines
- Consider your kitchen lighting
