Cottesloe, located along the beautiful coastline, is known for its collection of premium homes and upscale residential properties. This Cottesloe upgrade project focused on replacing existing tiling in the laundry and swimming pool areas of a high-end home, demonstrating how quality tiling work can refresh and modernize premium properties.
The homeowners came to us with a vision to upgrade their laundry and swimming pool areas by replacing the existing tiling. Through our detailed estimate process, we identified the scope of work needed: demolition of existing tiles, custom cabinetry installation in the laundry, and comprehensive tiling replacement across both laundry and swimming pool areas. The estimated cost range of $15K–$28K reflects the extensive tiling work, particularly the swimming pool tiling which requires specialized waterproofing and weather-resistant installation. The tiling costs shown are for labour only—tiles and materials are not included in this estimate.
What makes this project particularly noteworthy is how the professional tiling work transformed both the laundry and swimming pool areas. The quality tiling replacement created a cohesive, modern aesthetic that refreshed the entire property's appearance. Each phase was executed with professional expertise, with special attention to the tiling work that serves as both functional surfaces and design features. We'll walk you through each stage of the process, showing you exactly what happened, when it happened, and how the costs were allocated.
