How ServiceProLink helps in South Africa
A tiling rate that includes the tiles cannot be compared with a labour-only rate. Adhesive, spacers, waste, waterproofing under a shower, and skirting are further lines. Large-format tiles and a floor that needs a screed cost more to lay than a straight wall of small ceramics.
If the shower is being retiled, the membrane is not optional. A labour rate that is silent on waterproofing is not a complete bathroom price. Read [home renovation costs](/advice/home-renovation-costs-south-africa/) for how bathrooms are scoped, and the [renovations category](/listing-category/renovations/) for contractors.
The existing tiling form lives on as a short guide at [floor and wall tiling](/tile-and-grout-cleaning/). For a full room, [request a renovation quote](/request-a-quote/?spl_service=renovations&spl_source=advice) and state the square metres.
