Price per m², show the prep separately

Most tilers price tiling per square metre and the prep as its own line. That's how the invoice should look too. "Wall tiling (per m²) × 12" and "Remove old tiles and prepare walls" tell the customer far more than a single "Bathroom tiling" figure.

Large format tiles, herringbone, mosaics and diagonal layouts take longer. If you charge more for them, use a separate line, such as "Large format tiles (per m²)", so the customer can see why.

Materials: yours or theirs?

Tiles are often chosen and bought by the customer, while you supply adhesive, grout, trims, levelling clips and backer board. Make this clear. Put your materials on one line and note "Tiles supplied by customer". If you bought the tiles for them, add them as a materials line at cost or as agreed.

Waterproofing and backer board

In showers and wet rooms, tanking and backer board are as important as the tiles themselves, and customers rarely know they're there. List them. It shows the job was done properly and gives you a record if there's ever a leak.

Aftercare

Tell customers when they can use the shower or walk on the floor, and how to look after the grout. The notes box is ideal for this: "Leave 24 hours before using the shower. Seal natural stone every 12 months."

Working for a builder or bathroom company?

Tiling for a main contractor is construction work under CIS. Use the CIS invoice template so the deduction comes off your labour only.

Frequently asked questions

How do I invoice tiling by the square metre?

Put "Wall tiling (per m²)" as the description, the area in the quantity column and your rate as the unit price.

Should I charge for removing old tiles?

Yes, it's real work and often messy. Add it as its own line, along with any waste removal.

Can I invoice tiles the customer asked me to buy?

Yes. Add a materials line for the tiles, and keep the receipt in case they ask.

Working for a contractor?

If you're paid under the Construction Industry Scheme, use the CIS version. It works out the deduction and can apply the VAT reverse charge.
