Day-to-day operating brief

What Tiler work looks like in practice

A tiler prepares backgrounds and fixes wall or floor tiles to layouts, falls and movement details. The contract should cover cutting dust, wet areas, substrate condition, product batches and approval before covering membranes or services.

  • Set out tiles to approved lines, levels, falls and visual details.
  • Check tile, adhesive and grout identity, batch and condition.
  • Cut and fix materials using approved dust or wet controls.
  • Maintain movement, perimeter, drainage and service-interface details.
  • Protect completed surfaces and record inspections, snags and handover.

Frequently asked questions

Can tiling cover uninspected waterproofing?

Only when the project's required inspection or release has been completed and recorded.

What if tile batches differ in shade?

Keep the affected material identifiable and obtain layout or replacement approval before creating an unintended visible variation.

Can a Tiler correct a poor floor fall with extra adhesive?

Only where the specified system, permitted thickness and authorised technical assessment allow it; significant correction needs an approved preparation method.

Who approves the tile layout before fixing?

The project should identify the client, designer or site role accepting setting out, cuts, feature alignment and visible transitions before irreversible work.

What if the substrate is cracked or unstable?

Record and report the condition before covering it, then follow the authorised repair, movement or isolation detail rather than relying on tiles to bridge uncertainty.

May a different adhesive be used when stock runs out?

Not without confirming substrate, tile, wet-area, heating and other compatibility requirements and obtaining the project's required product approval.

How should dust from cutting tiles be controlled?

Use the approved wet cutting or extraction method, suitable respiratory protection, controlled location and cleanup arrangements for the material being cut.

What evidence should be kept before tiling conceals waterproofing?

Retain the area reference, product and batch, preparation, details, inspection or test evidence, photographs and formal release where required.
