Tiling in Melbourne East

Knut is preparing tiling coverage in Melbourne East. Requests and bookings open at launch.

Tiling jobs you can request

A tiler can be asked to lay tiles on a floor or wall, tile a bathroom or install a splashback. You can also request tile repairs if existing tiles need attention. When describing the job, say which surface needs work and whether you need a new tiled area or a repair. If the job covers more than one type of work, include each task in your description so tradies can consider the full scope when quoting. Knut sends your request to suitable local tradies who cover Melbourne East and offer the service.

How to brief a tiling job

Give the location, explain what needs doing and say when you would like the work done. Describe the area to be tiled or repaired and the surface involved, such as a floor, wall, bathroom or splashback. Photos can help show the current condition and the part of the space involved. If there are several tasks, list them together rather than leaving details out of the request. Knut sends the job description to suitable tradies, compares the quotes received and recommends one on merit based on how well it fits the job.

Quotes and Knut's booking fee

There is no charge to request quotes. Customers pay Knut one booking fee when they book: 5% on smaller jobs, tapering to 2.5% on large jobs, and never more than $150.00. You also pay the tradie's quoted price for the work. Tradies keep 100% of their quoted price, and Knut does not charge them to quote. Before booking, check the quote against the work you described so you know what it covers. Once booked through Knut, you can message the tradie and follow progress in one place.

Choosing and checking a tiler

Knut matches on the service, area, availability and reviews of the tradie. Compare the quotes received and consider which one best fits the work you described; a recommendation is made on merit. Check that the quote reflects all the tasks in your request, including any floor, wall, bathroom, splashback or repair work you listed. This trade does not generally need a trade licence. If you manage properties, work for a real-estate agency or look after facilities, Knut can also be used for maintenance across many properties.

Knut's booking fee

Requesting quotes is free. When you book, Knut adds one booking fee, shown before you pay, and never more than $150. The provider keeps 100% of their quote.
