Frequently asked.
Do you cover our part of Essendon?
Yes. We service all of Essendon (3040) and the surrounding suburbs — Strathmore, Airport West, Keilor East. Free on-site measure across the entire area.
Which bathroom tiling style suits Essendon homes best?
Given the local mix of edwardian and federation homes and interwar californian bungalows, we most often recommend honed travertine, paired with main + ensuite together. Every recommendation is confirmed against your specific floor plan during the design session.
Can we supply our own tiles?
Yes. We inspect the batch on arrival for shade variation and lippage, and only proceed once you've signed off. This protects you if the supplier delivers a bad batch.
Which grout do you recommend for showers?
Waterproof epoxy grout in wet zones — no cracking, no mould, no re-grouting in two years. It costs more up front and saves money over the lifetime of the bathroom.
