AI Quoting Software for Tilers

Tiling quotes need to communicate far more than just a price per square metre. Clients want to understand layouts, grout choices, waterproofing scope, and finish quality before they commit. TailoredQuote generates detailed, visual tiling quotes that win jobs and eliminate misunderstandings.

Why Tilers Use TailoredQuote

The biggest challenge in tiling is not the physical installation — it is communicating the specification clearly enough that the client knows exactly what they are getting. A bathroom tiling job involves wall preparation, waterproofing or tanking, adhesive selection, tile layout, cutting complexity, grout colour, sealant, and trim profiles. Most tilers send a one-line quote — "bathroom tiling, 18m2 walls and 4m2 floor, £2,400" — and then spend weeks dealing with questions about what is and is not included.

TailoredQuote eliminates that problem. Describe the job naturally — "full bathroom retile, 600x300 porcelain walls in herringbone pattern, 600x600 floor tiles, wet room tanking system to shower area, stainless steel trim to all exposed edges, grey grout throughout" — and the AI generates a quote that itemises every element of the work. The client can see that tanking is included, that trim is specified, and that the grout colour has been agreed. There are no surprises at handover.

The system understands the nuances that matter to tilers. It distinguishes between cement-based and flexible adhesive, knows when to specify a decoupling membrane on problematic substrates, and includes prep work like boarding, levelling, and priming as separate line items. For wet rooms, it scopes the full tanking system including joints, corners, and waste seals. For kitchen splashbacks, it accounts for socket cutouts and window reveals.

The Visual Quote Advantage for Tilers

Tiling is an inherently visual trade. Clients choose tiles based on how they look, but most quotes are plain text documents that give no indication of the finished result. The gap between what the client imagines and what they actually get is where disputes start — the wrong pattern, the wrong grout colour, the wrong tile orientation.

TailoredQuote's mockup tool lets you attach layout images and before-and-after photographs directly to your quote PDF. Show the client a visual of the proposed herringbone layout alongside a photograph of the existing bathroom, and they can see exactly what they are agreeing to. This is particularly valuable for feature walls, complex patterns, and colour combinations where words alone cannot convey the design intent. Clients who can see the finished result are more confident in your price and less likely to negotiate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I show tile layout mockups to my clients?+

Yes. The Pro plan includes the mockup tool which lets you embed layout images, mood boards, and before-and-after photographs directly in your quote PDF. Upload a photo of the existing space alongside an image of the proposed tile layout or pattern, and the client receives a single document that combines the visual design with the price breakdown. This is especially useful for herringbone patterns, feature walls, and complex colour combinations where the client needs to see the design before committing.

Does it include waterproofing in the scope?+

Yes. When you mention a wet room, shower enclosure, or any area requiring waterproofing, the AI automatically includes a full tanking specification in the quote. This covers the membrane system, joint tape, internal and external corners, pipe seals, and waste collar. For standard bathrooms, it specifies a liquid waterproof membrane to the shower zone. The scope is detailed enough that both you and the client know exactly what waterproofing standard is being provided, which prevents disputes about what was or was not included.

How does it handle material calculations?+

The AI generates the scope and pricing based on the area and specification you describe. It accounts for cutting waste — typically 10% for straightforward layouts and up to 15% for diagonal or herringbone patterns — and includes adhesive, grout, and primer quantities appropriate to the area. You review the generated quote and adjust any quantities or prices before sending. The system gives you a professional starting point that you can fine-tune, rather than making you build the entire quote from scratch.
