Tiling is priced by the square metre, and the risk sits in the prep, the wastage and the waiting: paid after the builder is paid, with materials bought up front. Coaching gets the square-metre pricing right for the real job, including prep, cuts and the days lost to other trades, and sets terms that protect your cashflow.
Then we track the hours and the materials so you can see the real margin on every job, and we build a workflow that scales to a second crew without the owner on every site. Wells Tiling in Devonport doubled a full year of profit in four months doing exactly this with Tamika.
