Tilers in Stockwell

South Australia is hard on tiles. Many parts of the state sit on reactive clay soils that move with the seasons, summer heat pushes external tiling through large temperature swings, and plenty of older homes have movement in the slab or frame. Whether the property is in Stockwell or anywhere else in the state, an experienced tiler allows for this with the right adhesives, movement joints and membranes rather than finding out later.

The older towns of Tanunda, Angaston and Kapunda keep a large stock of 19th-century stone cottages, villas and shopfronts, with post-war brick homes and 1970s and 80s brick veneers filling the streets around them. Newer estates on the edges of Nuriootpa and Freeling sit alongside farmhouses, vineyard homesteads and a steady supply of guest accommodation.
