Tiling - who specialises?

Would tiling usually be done by a decorator or a handyman? Not sure which of these to post my kitchen tiling job under on this site.

"No only a competent tiler should do the tiling not a handyman or a decorator all jobs should be done by the appropriate trades not just anyone."

"It would be done by a handyman. As long as it's in his job profile of course."

"You can get specific tilers but they tend to do more commercial work.

Some Decorators (like myself) will do tiling also. It all depends I guess on their experience. Otherwise you could try a handyman.

Personally I would try Decorators.

Hope this helps.

"Normally you would ask a tiler but depending on the actual job you may be able to find a handy mad at a cheaper rate to do it if small enough."
