Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Nov 05, 2019 8:09 am Hi Guys, My builder is not giving me full hight tilings in the bathrooms. is it something i can do later after the handover or I have to get it done by the builder? He is charging me 2k extra per bathroom for ceiling-high tiles. Thanks in advance Re: Bathroom Tiles After Handover 2Nov 05, 2019 10:15 am Hi Saminamin, You can do it after handover however one thing to be weary of is tiles come in batches, so it can make it very hard to match tiles even of the same type. Your builder may be able to supply the tiles needed and let you find a tiler after handover. My recommendation would be to get it all done at the same time, whilst you will be paying a premium for this it will help keep everything consistent. Talk to your builder though, ask why it seems so expensive, have you got rectified, large format tiles, large bathrooms, higher than standard ceilings ect? Hope this helps!

What if I can get the same batches from tile supplier? Do I need to let builder know and not to plaster the bathroom?

If timber or steel frames are used, the bathroom walls will be fitted with a fibre cement sheet of some sort, not plasterboard. Ideally you wouldn't want or need these walls painted if you are only going to tile over them after handover. yes it does, you've just not understood it. theres a difference. 4 5324 Your house should come in "as new" condition.
