  • 56 min
  • 4 modules

Builders and homeowners judge a tiler partly on how the business looks: your ute, your shirt, your quotes, your texts and your photos of finished bathrooms. From your answers and a few job photos, AI drafts logo options, a short set of colours and a way of writing, so everything you send matches.

A regrout, a feature splashback and a full bathroom retile each take a different number of days, and a bathroom can sit idle while waterproofing cures.

Owners often plan pool and alfresco tiling in the cooler months so the work is done by summer.

Creative Content for Wall and Floor Tilers Using AI

  • 57 min
  • 4 modules

A retile has clear stages: old tiles removed, waterproofing applied, tiles laid level and grout cleaned off. Those stages suit a carousel of photos, and the final clean makes a good opening shot for a video. AI picks the clearest photos, adds on-screen text for people watching without sound and writes a new version when an ad stops getting enquiries.

Build a Tiling Proposal with AI

  • 58 min
  • 4 modules

A bathroom retile often needs a plumber to remove and refit the taps, and the customer may not know who books them. AI turns your square metre rates and measure notes into a proposal that says who does each part, lists strip-out, waterproofing, floor levelling, tiling and grouting, and notes what could change the price, such as hidden water damage.

Questions wall and floor tilers ask

Does Tradie School teach tiling work or licensing?

No. Every course covers the business side: your brand, website, Google profile, ads, offer and proposals. How you set out, waterproof and grout stays with you, and your state's rules for tilers are between you and your regulator. The courses show where your licence number goes if your state requires one.

I mostly work for builders. Is this still for me?

Yes. On builder work the builder sets the rate and the schedule, and a quiet month for them can leave gaps in yours. Direct jobs from homeowners, property managers and strata managers, like regrouts, balcony retiles and splashbacks, let you set both. The courses cover being found and quoting direct, and Smoko drafts each piece.

I quote by the square metre. Will Build a Proposal still suit me?

Yes. It works from how you price now. It shows how to check your square metre rate covers travel, waste and tools, when a whole bathroom price suits better, and how to list inclusions so a cheaper quote can be compared fairly. Smoko builds the template from your own rates.

I only post my jobs on Instagram. Is that enough?

Instagram shows your work to people scrolling it, but those posts don't appear on your Google profile or in the map results. Social Media and SEO Basics cover putting the same before and after photos on your profile and service pages, named with the job and suburb, and Smoko drafts the captions for each.
