ADELAIDE / BATHROOM RETILING

Bathroom retiling in Adelaide

Refresh a dated finish or rebuild after a repair. Grout Line helps plan bathroom retiling around the condition beneath the tiles, the areas you want updated and the finish you have in mind.

Is it time to retile?

Retiling may be worth considering when:

  • Tiles are broken, loose or badly worn
  • A previous repair has left a patchwork finish
  • Waterproofing repairs require tile removal
  • You want to change the look of the bathroom
  • The existing tiled surface needs more than regrouting

Look beneath the finish

We assess the existing tiled area and discuss removal, preparation and waterproofing needs before planning new tiles. The condition of the base and any moisture or movement issues affect the scope. We also discuss your preferred finish, the areas included and tile supply arrangements.

From existing tiles to a new finish

01

Set the scope and finish

Review the bathroom, confirm the areas to be retiled and discuss tile selection, supply and the proposed layout.

02

Prepare the area

Remove existing finishes where needed and address the agreed preparation and waterproofing requirements before tiling.

03

Lay tiles and finish joints

Install tiles across the agreed area, then complete grouting and suitable flexible joints.

04

Review and hand over

Discuss the finished work, curing requirements and ongoing care before the area returns to use.

Retiling that fits the project

Depending on the assessment and agreed quote, work may include:

  • Shower wall and floor retiling
  • Bathroom wall or floor tile replacement
  • Removal and preparation of the existing tiled area
  • Waterproofing as part of the agreed repair or rebuild
  • Grouting and silicone finishing

A new tiled finish does not resolve underlying structural or plumbing problems. These need to be assessed and addressed as part of the wider plan.

Your questions

A shower-only scope may be possible. We need to consider adjoining surfaces and the waterproofing requirements before confirming the work.

Do not assume that tile-over-tile is suitable. The existing surface, levels and waterproofing needs must be assessed before a method is agreed.

Tile supply, quantities and any other materials should be agreed before ordering. Tell us if you already have tiles or a particular finish in mind.

Timing depends on the size of the area, removal and preparation, waterproofing and curing requirements. We discuss the expected sequence once the scope is clear.
