Tiler in Kenmore.

Tiling in Kenmore.

Kenmore is family housing on larger blocks — a lot of it from the 1970s and 80s, much of it with a pool, and most of it now on its second or third round of renovation.

Two things come up constantly here. The first is pool surrounds: original 80s pool paving that has lifted, cracked or simply dated, replaced with a modern external porcelain and proper coping. The second is the main bathroom, which in a house of that age is usually the original room with the original membrane. Both are jobs where doing the invisible half properly is what makes the visible half last.

Tiling and waterproofing are done by the same crew, which is the part that decides whether a Kenmore wet area is still sound in ten years. Measures and written quotes cost nothing — call 0405 508 730 or send the job through and we will come and look at it.
