Best tilers in Morley, Midland and Perth’s north-east (2026)
Table of Contents
These are the best-rated wall and floor tilers working Perth’s north-east corridor, from Dianella, Noranda and Morley through Bayswater and Bassendean, out along the Swan Valley side through Beechboro, Caversham and Dayton to Guildford and Midland. They’re ranked on real Google reviews, not on who paid us. Every operator below is a working tile contractor with a verified local base and a real review record; the tile shops, stone suppliers and zero-review listings that clutter these searches have been cut. Below the list you’ll find what tiling actually costs around Perth in 2026, the two things that quietly blow a tiling quote out, the red flags that tell you to keep scrolling, and a quick checklist to run before anyone opens a bag of glue in your house.

- Google reviews do the ranking. We start with every tiler’s live Google star rating and the number of reviews behind it, pulled fresh from Google Maps across Morley, Midland and the suburbs between.
- Volume matters as much as the score. We weight each rating by its review count, so a 4.9 proven across 52 jobs sits ahead of a 5.0 from five. That’s why a 4.9 tops this list: it has by far the deepest review base in the area.
- No tiling licence exists in WA, so we look harder at the reviews. Wall and floor tiling isn’t a licensed trade in Western Australia. Anything over $20,000 must be run by a registered builder, and wet-area waterproofing has to meet AS 3740, but for a straight tiling job the review record and insurance are your real protection. We tell you what to check in the checklist below.
- Locals only, verified on the map. Searches for this area surface tile shops in Midland, a stone supplier in Malaga, listings with no reviews, and operators based on the other side of Perth. We checked every candidate’s actual Google Maps location and cut all of them rather than pad the list.
- Paid spots are labelled, and never jump the queue. When a business pays for a “Featured” spot it’s marked as such. The review-based order below does not change to favour a payer. Right now, no spots are sold.
Perth Tiling Solutions
A 4.9 across 52 reviews is the strongest record of any tiler based in this corridor, and it’s held from a base on Meredith Way in Dianella, right at the western end of this area. Reviewers describe the operators as knowledgeable and professional, and the review base is deep enough that the rating actually means something. When the job matters and you want the safest pair of hands between Dianella and Midland, this is the first call.

A perfect 5.0 across 33 reviews, the deepest unblemished score in the north-east. Google lists the business as a bathroom remodeler as much as a tiler, which fits the review record: whole wet areas done end to end, not just tile laying. Based in Koondoola at the north-west corner of this area and working across the corridor. If your job is a full bathroom rather than a patch-up, get this quote alongside the one above.

A 5.0 held across 21 reviews from a tile contractor based in Alexander Heights, a few minutes north of Morley. Twenty-one reviews without a single dropped star is not luck; it’s a tiler who quotes straight and finishes what they start. A solid second quote for any wall and floor work on the northern side of this corridor.
View listing & contact ▸5.0 (5)
All five are working tile contractors verified against their Google Maps locations in or beside this corridor: Dianella, Koondoola, Alexander Heights, Dayton, and a service-area operator working Perth’s eastern side. We left off the tile retailers in Midland (Tile Empire and Beaumont Tiles sell tiles, they don’t lay them), the LUSSO Group in Malaga (a natural stone supplier), Snow Tiling WA in Morley (no reviews yet, which may change), listings with only a single review, a Glen Forrest tiler who belongs to the hills, and the Perth-wide operators based well outside the area that pad out these searches.
What tiling actually costs in Perth’s north-east (2026)
Nobody likes ringing a tiler blind on price. These are honest ballpark ranges for the common jobs around Morley, Bayswater and Midland, GST included, based on what Perth tilers are charging in 2026. They’re a guide to keep you from being overcharged, not a quote. The two numbers that quietly swing a tiling bill hardest are floor preparation (ripping up old tiles and levelling what’s underneath) and tile format (large-format 600×600-plus and mosaics both cost more to lay than a standard 300×300). Always get the prep priced separately in writing.
| Job | Typical range | What pushes it up |
|---|---|---|
| Floor tiling, laying only | $45-$75/m² | Large-format tiles, herringbone or diagonal patterns, uneven slab |
| Wall tiling, laying only | $50-$90/m² | Mosaics, feature niches, window reveals, floor-to-ceiling walls |
| Old tile removal & disposal | $25-$50/m² | Tiles glued to screed, double layers, upstairs access, tip fees |
| Bathroom waterproofing (AS 3740) | $500-$900 | Hob-less showers, second wet areas, failed old membrane to strip |
| Full bathroom retile (floor + walls) | $2,500-$7,000 | Tile choice, floor levelling, moving drainage, niche and hob work |
| Shower regrout & reseal | $350-$800 | Mould-affected silicone, epoxy grout upgrade, leak investigation |
| Kitchen or laundry splashback | $300-$800 | Glass mosaics, power point cutouts, out-of-square walls |
Ranges assume standard ceramic or porcelain and reasonable access. This corridor covers two very different housing stocks: the 1960s and 70s double-brick homes around Morley, Bedford and Bayswater, where old sand-and-cement screeds and drummy floors add prep cost, and the newer builds out through Beechboro, Dayton and the Swan Valley side, where slabs are usually flat but large-format tile is the fashion. A good tiler prices the difference after seeing the job, in writing, before starting. If they won’t, that’s a red flag (see below).
Don’t get ripped off: red flags
- No waterproofing certificate for wet areas. Every shower and bathroom floor in WA has to be waterproofed to AS 3740 before a single tile goes down, and you should get the certificate or written confirmation for it. A tiler who shrugs at waterproofing is quoting you a leak that shows up in two years, in the room below or in your wall cavity.
- A per-room price with nothing itemised. “Bathrooms are five grand” over the phone, sight unseen, with no square-metre rate and no line for prep or waterproofing, means the surprises get invented later. A real quote separates laying, prep, waterproofing and materials.
- A big deposit up front. For home improvement work between $7,500 and $500,000, WA’s Home Building Contracts Act caps the deposit at 6.5 per cent. Anyone wanting a third or half of a bigger job before starting is either cash-flow desperate or planning a slow fade. Smaller jobs should still only carry a modest materials deposit.
- Tiling straight over what’s there without checking it. Laying over old tiles or a cracked, drummy screed is sometimes fine and often a disaster, and the difference is whether anyone tapped the floor and checked levels first. In the older double-brick homes around Morley, Bedford and Bayswater, the original screeds are exactly where this goes wrong. If they quote without looking at the substrate, the fix comes out of your pocket twice.
- No public liability insurance. Tiling isn’t a licensed trade in WA, so insurance and the review record are your only real backstops. If they can’t show a current certificate of currency, keep scrolling.
Before you hire: quick checklist
- Written, itemised quote. Square-metre rate, prep and removal, waterproofing, and materials each on their own line, with a start date and a rough duration.
- Waterproofing to AS 3740. Who’s doing it, and do you get a certificate. For wet areas this matters more than the tiles.
- Insurance. A current public liability certificate of currency, and if the whole job tops $20,000, a registered builder running it (that’s the WA threshold).
- Recent local work. Photos of jobs finished in the last few months and reviews mentioning your kind of job, not just “great guy”.
- Warranty in writing. What happens if grout cracks, tiles drum or the shower leaks in twelve months, and who pays for it.
Frequently asked
How did you rank these tilers?
By their live Google star rating weighted by the number of reviews behind it, pulled from Google Maps across Morley, Midland and the suburbs between. That weighting is why Perth Tiling Solutions’ 4.9 across 52 reviews leads three perfect 5.0s with smaller bases: 52 verified jobs tell you more than 5. Every listing is a working tile contractor with a verified local base, not a tile shop.
Why are there only five tilers on this list?
Because that’s how many verified local tilers with a real review record we found. Searches for this area also return tile retailers in Midland, a Malaga stone supplier, listings with no reviews or a single review, and tilers based on the other side of Perth. We’d rather show you five proven locals than pad the list to ten. As local tilers build review bases, the list grows.
What does it cost to retile a bathroom in Perth?
For a standard-sized bathroom, floor and walls, expect roughly $2,500 to $7,000 depending on tile choice, how much prep the floor needs and whether drainage moves. Waterproofing to AS 3740 usually adds $500 to $900 and is not the place to save money. Get the prep and waterproofing itemised separately on the quote.
Do tilers need a licence in WA?
No. Unlike electricians or plumbers, wall and floor tilers aren’t licensed in Western Australia. Two rules still protect you: any home improvement work over $20,000 must be carried out by a registered builder, and wet-area waterproofing must meet the AS 3740 standard. Beyond that, the tiler’s review record, insurance and warranty are what you’re relying on, which is exactly why this list is ranked on reviews.
