1. Tiling over poor pre-tiling workmanship. Often private tilers just want to get in and out. They’ll fail to inform you of poor workmanship to avoid delays. Instead they’ll tile over the top, leaving you with an even bigger problem to sort out later.

2. Underestimation. Estimations relating to waterproofing, labour and quantities that fail to cover ‘this’ and ‘that’. You're often - or always - left footing the extras bill.

3. Painful defect rectification. Getting trades back to rectify works is akin to extracting blood out of a stone. You waste precious resources chasing them up.

4. Out-of-pocket maintenance & warranty repairs. Nothing erodes builders’ margins more than tradespeople who aren’t contactable down the track. They dodge accountability for their poor workmanship, while you’re left with the warranty repair bill... and the time taken to sort it out.

5. Unhappy customers. Delays with warranty work harm your reputation. Moreover, the power of social media means bad news spreads like wildfire. Negative reviews can cause irreversible damage; this is not a cost that any business can afford.

This is an opportunity to step up your tiling game and turn a weakness into a strength.
