    Renovations

    Complete bathroom renovations for Short homes

    Whether it is a main bathroom, an ensuite or a small second bathroom, SA Tiling Pro delivers complete renovations in Short: demolition and disposal, substrate repair, waterproofing, tiling, shower screens and accessories, with fixtures fitted off by a licensed plumber.

    Because we are tilers first, the finish is where the difference shows: flat floors with minimal lippage and proper falls to the waste, aligned niches, tight grout lines and slip-rated tiles chosen for a wet area.

    Local knowledge

    Tiling homes and businesses in Short

    On a build or renovation, the tiler sits between the plumber, the waterproofer, the cabinetmaker and the painter. If the tiling runs late, everyone behind it does too. SA Tiling Pro works to the program, confirms dates with the builder or site supervisor and turns up when booked, which is what keeps a job in Short on schedule.

    Mount Gambier has a strong stock of homes built from local limestone alongside post-war brick and weatherboard houses and newer subdivisions on the city's edges. Across the region there are heritage cottages in towns such as Penola, holiday homes and shacks in Robe, Beachport and Kingston SE, and farmhouses on grazing and cropping land.

    Renovating an existing home in Short

    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.

    Tiling around an occupied home in Short

    Most of our residential work happens while people are living in the house, so we seal off the work area, keep dust down and let you know each day what is happening next. If the house has one bathroom, we plan the sequence so it is out of action for the shortest time we can manage.

    About Short

    Short (postcode 5279) is part of the Limestone Coast & South East region, 3 to 5 hours south-east of Adelaide. SA Tiling Pro is Adelaide based and services Short along with nearby Koorine, Mount Burr, Mount McIntyre.

    Things we consider on the Limestone Coast

    • Salt air and coastal slip resistance

      Homes in Robe, Beachport and Kingston SE cop salt-laden wind and sand traffic. We specify slip-rated tiles for outdoor and wet areas in line with AS 4586, use corrosion-resistant trims and fixings, and keep proper falls to drains.

    • Limestone and heritage substrates

      Older Mount Gambier stone homes and Penola cottages often have uneven floors, lime mortar and old render. We assess the substrate first, level and prime where needed, and place movement joints in line with AS 3958.1.

    FAQ

    Tiling questions from Short

    Ready to talk about tiling in Short? Send the quote form or call SA Tiling Pro and we will arrange a time to measure up. Quotes are free and carry no obligation.

    Do you travel to Short?
    Yes. SA Tiling Pro services all of South Australia, and Short is 3 to 5 hours south-east of Adelaide. For metropolitan work we travel daily; for regional and remote jobs we arrange travel so the work is completed in as few trips as possible.
    How does a quote for Short work?
    Quotes are free and carry no obligation. Where practical we come out to Short, measure up, look at the substrate and the existing waterproofing, and put the price in writing. Where distance makes that impractical, or the job is a new build, we quote from plans and photos first and confirm on site. The quote sets out what is included so there are no surprises once work starts.
    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. If other trades are involved, such as a plumber or an electrician, confirm their rough-in is finished before our start date. We will run through anything specific to your job in Short when we confirm the booking.
    What should I consider when tiling a holiday home in Robe or Beachport?
    Salt air, sand and heavy summer use are the main issues. We recommend low-absorption porcelain, slip-rated tiles for outdoor and wet areas to AS 4586, and waterproofing to AS 3740 in bathrooms and laundries. Durable grout and corrosion-resistant trims cut down on maintenance between visits.
    Do you supply the tiles or can I buy my own?
    Either works. We can source tiles through our suppliers or lay tiles you have already chosen. If you are supplying your own, we will tell you how much to order including a cutting allowance.
