WHO WE ARE
A Family Workshop, Not a Franchise
Tarara Tiling is a family-owned Auckland business, built by husband-and-wife team Marko and Valentina. Marko brings over 15 years of European experience to every installation — the patient, precise hand behind our clean lines and flawless grout. Valentina looks after you: quotes, scheduling and clear answers, from your first message to the final walkthrough.
We take on projects we can give our full attention to. That’s what boutique means to us — not the biggest tiling company in Auckland, but one of the most careful.
WHY TARARA
Why Auckland Homeowners Choose Tarara Tiling
- PS3-approved waterproofing. Marko is an approved PS3 Producer Statement author — wet areas waterproofed to the New Zealand Building Code before any tile goes down.

- Workmanship guaranteed. Our work is backed by a 10-year workmanship guarantee, with manufacturer warranties on eligible waterproofing and underfloor-heating systems.
- Fully insured. Public liability insurance on every job, for your peace of mind.

WATERPROOFING FIRST
Watertight From the Ground Up
Behind a beautiful finish is work you can’t see — and that’s where it matters most. As an approved PS3 author, Tarara Tiling can provide a Producer Statement for eligible projects, giving homeowners, builders and architects confidence that the waterproofing meets the New Zealand Building Code and the manufacturer’s specifications. It’s the difference between a bathroom that lasts decades and one that leaks in a few years.
