Questions tilers ask

What should a tile installation invoice include?

Your business details and the client's, the job address, each tile area with its square footage, the tile and setting materials, labor, grout and finish, any outside costs, the tax, the total and your payment terms.

Can I edit the templates?

Yes. Every field is editable: your details, the client, each line with its area, quantity, unit price and amount, the tax rate, notes and terms. Switch designs at any time and your details stay.

Do I need an account?

No. The templates, generators and calculators work in your browser. Save, send a tracked link or use AI drafting only if you choose to.

How do I show materials and labor separately?

Put tile, adhesive and grout on their own lines with quantities, and labor on separate lines with hours or a job price, so the client can see what each part of the job costs.

What file formats can I download?

A PDF to email or print, or a PNG image. Word, Google Docs and Excel versions are on their own template pages.

What should a tiler invoice include?

The square footage of each surface at its rate, the tile with its size and lot number, setting materials, and prep such as demolition, backer board and waterproofing. Add trim and transitions, any charge for a complex pattern, your license number where your state requires one and the job address.

How much should I charge for tiling per square foot?

It depends on tile size and material, the layout pattern, whether it is a floor, wall or shower, the condition of the surface underneath, and how many cuts the room needs. Large-format tile and small mosaics both take longer to set than standard sizes. The generator opens this line at $4.40 per square foot as a placeholder; type your own rate.

Should I take a deposit before ordering tile?

Yes when you are buying the tile, because special-order tile often cannot be returned and you should not carry that cost if the job stalls. Invoice a materials deposit before placing the order, then bill the balance on completion. Some states limit how much a home improvement contractor can take up front, so check yours.

What can I do if a homeowner does not pay for tile work?

Installed tile becomes part of the property, so in many states you have mechanic's lien rights, but they come with notice requirements and deadlines that vary by state and sometimes start before work begins. Send a statement first, with photos of the finished work. When you are paid, the owner or general contractor will usually want a lien waiver in return.

Do tile installers charge sales tax?

It depends on the state. In many states the installer pays tax when buying materials and the installation labor is not taxed, while others tax labor on repairs but not on new installations or capital improvements. Tile sold to a client without installation is generally taxable. Set tax per line so materials and labor can differ, and check your state.

How do I bill for problems found during demolition?

Stop and get written approval before fixing rotten subfloor, water damage or an out-of-level slab, then bill the repair as a change order line with its own price. Photos taken before the fix explain the charge, since the repaired surface is covered by tile by the time the client reads the invoice.

Should I charge more for large-format tile or complex patterns?

Yes, as a separate line or a higher square-foot rate stated on the invoice. Large-format tile needs a flatter surface and often two people to set, and herringbone, diagonal and mosaic layouts mean more cuts and more waste. Naming the tile size and pattern on the invoice explains why the rate differs from a straight lay.

Can I invoice extra area found during the job?

Yes. Bill it as a change order with the extra square footage and rate on its own line, agreed before the work, so it is not folded into the original price.

Where do grout color and waterproofing go?

Put the tile size and grout color in the line description, and waterproofing as its own line, so the client can see what was installed behind and between the tile.

Fields for tiler jobs

  • Room area
  • Tile size
  • Grout color
  • Waterproofing
  • Trim and edging
  • Waste
  • Surface prep
  • Additional area

What to include in a tiler invoice

  • Area in square feet. The measured area of each surface, floor, walls or shower, priced per square foot so the client can check the figure against the room.
  • Tile, size and lot. The tile name, size and lot number, which matters when a cracked tile needs an exact color match years later.
  • Thinset, grout and sealer. Setting materials listed on their own line, since they scale with area and tile type rather than with your hours on the job.
  • Demolition and surface prep. Removing old tile, leveling the floor or installing backer board, work that is hidden once the new tile is down.
  • Waterproofing membrane. The membrane or coating applied in showers and wet areas, named on the invoice because nobody can see it after tiling.
  • Pattern and cutting work. Herringbone, diagonal layouts, niches and mosaic work, which take longer per square foot than a straight lay and justify a different rate.
  • Trim and transitions. Bullnose, edge profiles and thresholds by the linear foot or piece, so finishing details are not absorbed into the area rate.
  • Waste allowance, listed separately. Extra tile bought for cuts and breakage, shown as its own line at the material rate rather than added into the installed square footage, so labor is billed only for area actually tiled.
  • License and job address. Your contractor license number where your state requires one and the job address, which ties the invoice to the property.

Made for the way tilers work

  • The lines every job has

    Tiling by the square foot, adhesive and grout, waterproofing and prep, labor. Pick tiling and they are priced.

  • Tile, batch and area covered

    Which tile, which batch, how many square feet. It matters when one cracks and the client wants a match.

  • Photograph the substrate, sign the scope

    Nobody sees the waterproofing once the tiles are on. The photo is what justifies that line.

  • Paid on the last tile

    A card link on the invoice so the customer pays while the bathroom still looks finished to them.

  • Repeat developer work bills itself

    Same builder, same rate per unit, every lot. Set it recurring.

  • The measure becomes the invoice

    Quoted from the measure, billed from the same lines with the square footage adjusted.
