Commercial Tiling in Auckland
Durable, compliant tiling for fit-outs, hospitality and retail — delivered to programme.
Commercial tiling has to do more than look good — it has to stand up to heavy traffic, meet compliance requirements and be delivered without holding up the fit-out. Tarara Tiling brings the same precision we’re known for on premium homes to commercial projects across Auckland, led by Marko, a master tiler with over 15 years’ experience.
Every job we finish is backed by a 10-year workmanship guarantee.
Hospitality, Retail & Fit-Outs
Hospitality
cafés, restaurants and bars where floors and walls take constant wear and need to look sharp.
Retail & fit-outs
clean, hard-wearing tiling that presents your brand and lasts through the traffic.
Commercial bathrooms & wet areas
high-use amenities, waterproofed to code and built to last.
Body corporate & multi-unit
consistent, reliable tiling across developments and shared spaces.

Built to Last, Compliant by Design
In a commercial space, a failed floor or a leaking wet area means downtime and cost. We specify and install for the environment — the right tiles, the right adhesives and grouts, and proper substrate prep — so the finish holds up under commercial use. Wet areas are waterproofed to the New Zealand Building Code by an approved PS3 author, with a Producer Statement available for eligible projects. We’re Site Safe certified and fully covered by public liability insurance, so we’re ready for commercial sites.
Capacity for Larger Projects
We’re set up to handle scale as well as detail — from a single high-use bathroom to whole fit-outs and multi-unit developments. We coordinate with your project team and other trades to keep the tiling on programme and the finish consistent from the first tile to the last.

“Marko went above and beyond to ensure our fairly large commercial tiling needs were met — they helped us tile and renovate 4 bathrooms in a very short space of time… the whole Tarara Tiling team got the job done on time and on budget.” — Adam C.

Yes. Alongside our premium residential work, we tile commercial projects across Auckland — hospitality, retail, fit-outs, commercial bathrooms and multi-unit developments — coordinating with your project team and other trades to keep the tiling on programme.
Are you Site Safe certified and insured for commercial sites?
Yes. We’re Site Safe certified and fully covered by public liability insurance, so we’re ready to work on commercial sites alongside other trades.
Can you provide PS3 waterproofing for commercial wet areas?

Can you keep the tiling on programme for a fit-out?
That’s how we work. We coordinate with your builder, project manager and other trades so the tiling stays on schedule and the finish is consistent from the first tile to the last.
How do you make sure a commercial floor stands up to heavy traffic?
We specify for the environment — the right tiles, adhesives and grouts, with proper substrate preparation — so the finish holds up under commercial use instead of failing early and causing downtime.
