    Everything from a splashback to a full commercial fit-out, delivered to Karatta and the wider Kangaroo Island area.

    Renovations

    Bathroom renovations in Karatta

    A full bathroom renovation in Karatta is one of the most common jobs we quote. SA Tiling Pro manages the whole project: strip-out, coordination of licensed plumbers and electricians, screeds and waterproofing to AS 3740, floor and wall tiling, fit-off of screens, mirrors and accessories, and the licensed plumber fitting off vanities, toilets and tapware.

    Most renovations take two to four weeks. We keep the rest of the house usable, clean up daily and give you a written, itemised quote before any demolition starts.

    Local knowledge

    Tiling homes and businesses in Karatta

    Local knowledge saves money. Knowing which adhesives, membranes and grouts suit conditions on Kangaroo Island means fewer call-backs, less wasted material and a result that still looks right years later.

    Kingscote has a mix of older weatherboard and brick homes alongside newer builds, while the coastal settlements at Emu Bay, American River and Penneshaw have many holiday houses and shacks. Inland around Parndana, farmhouses date from the post-war soldier settlement scheme, and a number of homes across the island are recent rebuilds following the 2019-20 bushfires.

    Choosing tiles and grout for Karatta homes

    We help you weigh up porcelain, ceramic, stone and mosaics for each space, and we advise on grout colour, joint width and sealing so the finish is easy to keep clean and suits the way the room is used.

    Renovating an existing home in Karatta

    Older bathrooms and kitchens often hide uneven floors, out-of-square walls and tired waterproofing. We strip out carefully, level and prepare the substrate, then waterproof and tile so the new finish is flat, dry and built to last.

    About Karatta

    Things we consider on Kangaroo Island

    • Bushfire rebuilds and new construction

      Much of the island is bushfire-prone and many homes have been rebuilt since the 2019-20 fires. Wet areas in these new builds are waterproofed to AS 3740 and floors are set out to suit the new slab or sheet flooring, with movement joints placed as AS 3958.1 recommends.

    • Slip ratings for wet feet

      Holiday houses and accommodation see sandy, wet feet coming in from the beach. Pool surrounds, outdoor showers, verandahs and entries should use tiles with an appropriate AS 4586 slip rating rather than a polished finish.

    How should I prepare before you arrive?
    Clear the work area of furniture, personal items and anything on the walls or benchtop, and make sure we have access to power and water.

    Do you take on small jobs like regrouting or a few cracked tiles?
    Yes. Tile repairs and regrouting are a regular part of our work across South Australia, and a small job in Karatta done properly often saves a much bigger one later. We quote small jobs the same way as large ones, in writing and without obligation.
