Tiling in Melbourne South East

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

Tiling jobs you can request

Knut accepts requests for floor tiling and wall tiling, whether you need tiles laid across a surface or want a particular wall tiled. You can also request bathroom tiling, a kitchen splashback or tile repair. For repairs, describe which tiles are damaged and where they are; for a larger tiling job, explain which areas are included. The work could be for a home or for maintenance across properties managed by a property manager, real-estate agency or facilities team. Include photos if they will help show the area or the repair needed.

How to brief your tiling job

Give a clear description of what needs doing, where the work is and when you would like it done. Name the type of job, such as bathroom tiling, a splashback or a repair, and list each area you want included. Share measurements if you have them, and say whether you have chosen or already have tiles. Photos can help tradies understand the surfaces and the scope before they quote. If the work covers more than one property, describe the locations and tasks so the request reflects the work you need priced.

Quotes and Knut's booking fee

There is no charge to request quotes. Knut sends your request to suitable local tradies who cover the area and offer the service, then compares the quotes received and recommends one on merit. If you book through Knut, you pay Knut's booking fee at booking and pay the tradie's quoted price for the work. Knut's fee is 5% on smaller jobs, tapering to 2.5% on large jobs, and never more than $150.00. Tradies keep 100% of their quoted price, and Knut does not charge them to quote.

Choosing and checking a tiler

Compare the quotes you receive against the work you described: check that each one covers the same areas and tasks, and ask about anything that is unclear. You can consider the tradie's reviews alongside whether their service and availability suit your job. Tiling does not generally need a trade licence, and Knut matches on the service, area, availability and reviews of the tradie. Before booking, confirm the agreed scope and quoted price with the tradie. Once booked through Knut, you can message the tradie and follow progress in one place.
