Your Tiling Partner for Builds & Renovations in Auckland
A reliable tiling and waterproofing subcontractor who turns up, hits programme and gets the compliance right.
Builders, architects and developers across Auckland work with Tarara Tiling because the tiling and waterproofing get handled properly — on time, to code, and to a standard that reflects well on your build. Led by Marko, a master tiler with over 15 years’ experience, we slot into your programme as a dependable trade partner, not a variable you have to manage.
Reliable Tiling for Builders, Architects & Developers
- On programme. We give realistic timeframes and stick to them, so tiling doesn’t become the trade that holds up your handover.
- Compliance sorted. Approved PS3 waterproofing to the New Zealand Building Code, with a Producer Statement for eligible wet areas.
- Capacity for scale. From single bathrooms to large residential projects — we’ve tiled homes of 250m²+ and multi-unit developments.
- Easy to work with. Clear communication, tidy sites, and a team that coordinates with your other trades rather than working against them.
- Certified & insured. ARDEX, Mapei and Surtec certified; TANZ, Tile Council and Site Safe members; fully covered by public liability insurance.
PS3 Producer Statement for Eligible Projects
For builders, architects and councils, waterproofing sign-off matters. Marko is an approved PS3 Producer Statement author, so for eligible projects we can provide a Producer Statement (PS3) — formal assurance that the waterproofing has been installed in accordance with the New Zealand Building Code and the manufacturer’s specifications. That’s one less compliance risk on your job, documented and backed by a qualified installer.
From Single Bathrooms to Large-Scale Builds
We work across the full range of residential and light-commercial tiling: new-build bathrooms, kitchens and living areas, wet-area waterproofing, large-format porcelain, pool and outdoor tiling, and multi-unit developments. Whether you need one bathroom tiled to a high standard or every kitchen and bathroom in a development, we scale to the job and keep the finish consistent throughout.
