Harbour Tiling services Concord from a West Ryde base.

This page is designed to answer the practical questions that matter before you get quotes: prep, waterproofing sequencing, layout planning, and (where relevant) apartment access logistics.

Quick actions


What usually changes scope in Concord

  • What’s under the existing surface (concrete, timber, old tiles)
  • Wet-area history (previous leaks, unknown waterproofing)
  • Tile size and finish (large format needs flatter substrates)
  • Access constraints (parking, deliveries, strata rules)

Local notes (what usually matters in Concord)

  • A lot of work is house renovations and re-tiles: expect variation in older waterproofing history.
  • Timber floors and movement are common drivers of extra prep in older bathrooms.
  • Setout planning (where cuts land) is often the main quality differentiator on feature walls and bathrooms.
