What’s the Best Season for Tiling Projects in Perth’s Climate?
As a tiler working throughout Perth’s varied weather conditions, I’ve seen firsthand how our unique climate affects tiling projects. From sweltering summer days in Joondalup to wet winter mornings in Fremantle, each season brings its own challenges and opportunities.
Let me share my practical experience about the best times to schedule your tiling project.
But before I do, let’s hear from one of my recent clients;
I’ve been wanting to do my bathroom renovation for a while now, I contacted many other tilers for a quote. Finally I got a quote from Gary from Gib tiling which was done over the phone, quote seemed reasonable plus I saw good reviews on hipages and google reviews. So I went forward with him, I asked him if you have a slot to get it done before Christmas although he had a very tight schedule, he managed to get a spot for me, I never thought stripping all the tiles, putting a concrete pad, repair some render, screeding, waterproofing and laying tiles would be done within 6 days. Communication between Gary & Grace was on point. I would highly recommend Gib tiling to anyone who is looking remodel their bathroom. Plus tiler we got, he was very professional as well. He didn’t charge no other hidden costs or anything else.
