Websites for Adelaide wall and floor tilers that print your licence the way the CBS register shows it, keep any deposit wording inside South Australia's limits, and find room in the gallery for a tessellated verandah in Norwood, a pool re-tile in the foothills and a new-build ensuite out at Munno Para.
South Australia licenses building work contractors through Consumer and Business Services, and tiling isn't among the kinds of flooring HIA describes as outside that licensing, so unlike a Melbourne or Perth tiler you may well hold a number that customers and builders can look up. The rest of the site has to match it: the work it offers, the way it talks about money, and the older houses that make up so much of the inner suburbs.
An SA building work contractor's licence spells out the kinds of work it allows. The 2026 Regulations list “other specified building work” among those kinds, along with a narrower version performed only on a subcontract basis for a licensed contractor or on a project run by a licensed project manager. If yours is a subcontract-only licence, the site shouldn't invite homeowners to hire you direct. If it covers tiling but not full renovations, the services list should stop at tiling and waterproofing, so nobody reads a whole bathroom into it.
The Form 1 notice that comes with every SA domestic building contract that has to be in writing (work of $20,000 or more) tells owners the law prohibits a deposit above one thousand dollars, or 5 per cent where the price is over $20,000, apart from money passed on to third parties such as councils or engineers. A line like “half up front” on a services page contradicts that in public. If you mention payments, one sentence in your words and a link to the regulator is plenty.
Norwood Payneham & St Peters describes the grandest Victorian verandah floors as slate edging with tessellated tiles, noting that simple octagon and dot patterns are common and the intricate ones belong to larger Victorian houses. If you lift, reset or match those floors, photograph the pattern before and after, and caption each one with the house type and suburb, such as “Octagon and dot pattern re-laid inside original slate edge, villa, Kent Town”.
Under the 2026 Regulations, a written domestic building contract entered into from 1 September 2026 that includes repairing or improving a pool or spa at a house must include information about the state's pool safety rules. That covers jobs of $20,000 or more, so if you re-tile pools or lay coping, a pool page that mentions you include that information on jobs that size shows an owner you've kept up. Alfresco floors, steps and paths can share the page with their own photos.
SA's asbestos website lists backing to wall and floor tiles among the places asbestos turns up in bathrooms and laundries, and underlay sheeting for ceramic tiles and backing of vinyl floor tiles in kitchens. A short paragraph saying what you do when you strip out a room in an older house, and who you call when you suspect it, reassures the owner without the page giving safety advice.
Room or area first: bathroom, laundry, kitchen, floors, verandah, pool or outdoor. Then rough square metres, whether old tiles come up, who's buying the new ones, whether the house was built before 1990, and for a unit, whether the strata manager knows. Photo uploads go at the end. You'll know before calling whether the job sits under the $20,000 line or needs a written contract and the Form 1 notice.
Licensing, in brief. Our page for Adelaide builders covers the building work contractor's licence, the supervisor registration behind it and the SA.GOV.AU rule that public advertising carries your licensed name and licence number. For tilers, three details matter. The Building Work Contractors Regulations 2026 don't name tiling on its own; HIA's guide explains that building work under the Act includes altering, repairing or improving a building, and lists floating floors, carpet and vinyl that aren't used for waterproofing as outside it, and tiling isn't on that list. Schedule 1 of the Regulations sets out "other specified building work" as one of the kinds of work the Commissioner assesses, with a narrower version performed only as a subcontractor to a licensed contractor or under a licensed project manager. And HIA notes that a subcontractor needs a licence for the type of work they carry out, while an employee doesn't unless they're the nominated supervisor. CBS confirms which category fits your work; the website simply repeats what the licence says, and careful customers check it on the public register.
Small jobs and big ones. The Law Handbook explains that since 10 November 2025, domestic building work under $20,000 is minor domestic building work, with no legal requirement for a written contract or building indemnity insurance, though the trade still needs to be properly licensed and the statutory warranties apply either way. Most splashbacks, laundry floors and single-room retiles sit under that line; a full bathroom with strip-out and waterproofing, or a pool re-tile with new coping, can cross it. At or above it, the contract has to be in writing and come with the prescribed Form 1 notice, whose deposit limit is set out above. Insurance thresholds and development approval are covered on our Adelaide bathroom renovators page, so we'd keep your own site to a link to the Handbook's page on minor domestic building work.
Verandah floors in the older suburbs. Norwood Payneham & St Peters' heritage fact sheet on front verandahs ranks the traditional floors from plain render with a rounded front edge, through concrete with a cant brick or slate edge, up to slate edging with tessellated tiles on the more prestigious houses, and says the pattern signals both the house's standing and its era. In Colonel Light Gardens, the 1920s garden suburb in the City of Mitcham and a State Heritage Area, the Heritage Standards go further: they list verandah floor tiling among conservation works deemed development, ask owners to seek a Heritage SA officer's advice first, and say works more than minor in nature need development approval, with the City of Mitcham and Heritage SA able to confirm which is which. A tiler who restores these floors has something particular to show, and one line saying you check approvals before a heritage verandah comes up tells an owner you know the rules exist.
Older bathrooms and kitchens. The state's asbestos guidance says a home built before the mid-1980s is highly likely to contain asbestos products, one built between then and 1990 is likely to, and one built after 1990 is unlikely to. That's a large share of the villas, bungalows and post-war houses across the inner and middle suburbs. The rules on who can remove how much are on our bathroom renovators page; for a tiler's site, the useful thing is a plain statement of what you do when a wall or floor lining looks suspect, with a link to the state's guidance.
Working with us. WebCraft Studio is at Ste 3/110 Hutt St in the city, and our nearest examples are Adelaide trades. Most projects run by phone and email, which suits someone on their knees laying tiles all day: send photos and notes once you're off site, and a draft link comes back to check on your phone. If you'd rather sit down before starting, that can be arranged. You supply the licence details, your words on how you work and the suburbs you cover; we arrange them into pages, link the official guidance, and leave licensing, approval and contract calls to you and CBS.
Our portfolio doesn't include a tiling site yet. The two nearest in our portfolio are both Adelaide businesses: a renovation builder whose work includes bathrooms, and a painting company whose site sorts work by service and by region. The review below is from SA Tiling Pro Pty Ltd, a tiling company, about working with us.
Licensed South Australian builder doing bathroom, kitchen and laundry renovations across Adelaide, the Hills and the Fleurieu. The 30-page site has seven service pages, seven service-area pages, five planning guides, a project gallery and a seven-step quote form. A tiling business could borrow the stepped form and the area pages on a smaller scale.

Adelaide painting company covering interior, exterior, roof, commercial and specialty work. The site has 12 detailed service pages, region pages across South Australia, a suburb and postcode search and an online quote form. The same structure suits a tiler who wants separate pages for bathrooms, floors, verandahs and pools.

Your name as it appears on the licence, or your registered business name, and the licence number, as SA.GOV.AU's guidance for builders requires on public advertising; we treat the website as advertising. If the licence is limited, for example to subcontract work, describe your services within that limit. Check the wording against your entry on the CBS register before launch, because that's where a careful customer will compare it.
Only if the figure fits the law. The Form 1 notice in the Building Work Contractors Regulations 2026 tells owners a deposit can't exceed one thousand dollars, or 5 per cent where the contract price is over $20,000, apart from money paid on to third parties. We'd keep it to one sentence linking the Law Handbook's page on building work contracts, so there's only one line to change if the rules move.
We'd leave that out. In Colonel Light Gardens, the Heritage Standards count verandah floor tiling as development and say works more than minor need approval, and other heritage areas have their own rules. Show the restoration work, say you'll work to whatever the council approves, and send owners to PlanSA or their council to check their address.
If you strip out rooms in houses built before 1990, a short paragraph helps. SA's asbestos website names backing to wall and floor tiles and underlay sheeting for ceramic tiles among the places it's found. Say in your own words what you do when you suspect it, and link to the state's guidance rather than offering safety advice on your page.
Yes. We can build online booking into the site, quoted with the rest of the job, or link a tool you already use, such as Calendly. Plenty of tilers prefer the quote form and photos first and a phone call to set the visit, which saves a drive to Aldinga for a job that turns out to be a splashback.
No. Clients in Adelaide and interstate can work with us entirely by phone and email, and we reply within 24 hours. You send photos, licence details and suburbs, we build a draft for you to check on your phone, you ask for as many changes as you like, and you pay once you approve it. If you'd rather meet before we start, we can arrange that.
Send us your licence number, a dozen photos of finished bathrooms, floors, verandahs or pools, and the suburbs you'll travel to. We'll build the draft, you tell us what to change, and you pay once you're happy with it.
We reply within 24 hours. Prefer email? info@webcraftstudio.com.au
