How much does tiling cost in Markham?
Most Canadian homeowners pay $12-$22 per square foot installed (labour plus standard ceramic or porcelain tile) for a straightforward floor or wall - about $15/sq ft on a typical job. Basic ceramic in a simple straight lay starts near $8-$10; showers, natural stone, and intricate patterns like herringbone push it to $30-$65. In whole-project terms, a kitchen backsplash runs roughly $800-$1,600 and a fully tiled shower surround $2,500-$5,000.
In Markham, ON, typical quotes tend to come in above the Canadian average, so the table below nudges these national figures up by roughly 15% at the low end of each range and up to 30% at the top end.
What moves the price: The low end is standard ceramic or porcelain in a simple straight lay; the top end is showers and wet areas, natural stone, or intricate patterns like herringbone that need waterproofing and precision cuts.
| Project | Typical cost in Markham |
|---|---|
| Floor tile install - standard ceramic or porcelain, straight lay (labour + material) | $18 $9.25 to $33 per sq ft |
| Kitchen backsplash - typical 30-40 sq ft, installed | $1,700 $800 to $3,900 per project |
| Backsplash tile - per square foot installed | $34 $17 to $60 per sq ft |
| Tiled shower surround - full walls, standard size, installed (incl. waterproofing) | $4,300 $2,300 to $9,000 per project |
| Shower / wet-area tile - per square foot (waterproofing + precision cuts) | $43 $21 to $80 per sq ft |
| Complex pattern or large-format floor (herringbone, chevron, 24x24+) | $39 $23 to $70 per sq ft |
| Natural stone tile install (marble, travertine, slate) | $47 $25 to $80 per sq ft |
| Old tile removal + subfloor levelling (add-on) | $7.25 $3.50 to $16 per sq ft |
What changes the price of tiling in Markham
- Pattern and layout complexity - a plain straight lay is cheapest. A diagonal layout adds roughly 15-25% to labour, and herringbone, chevron, or basketweave can add 30-50% because of the extra cuts and layout time.
- Wet areas need waterproofing - showers and tub surrounds require a waterproof membrane, a properly sloped base, and precise cuts around valves and niches, which is why tiling a shower costs roughly double tiling a flat floor per square foot.
- Surface prep and demolition - tearing out old tile, levelling an uneven subfloor, or repairing water-damaged walls are billed on top of the tile install, typically $3-$12 extra per square foot.
- Room size and number of cuts - small rooms with lots of corners, edges, fixtures, and niches mean more cuts per square foot, so a small bathroom often costs more per square foot than a large open floor.
- Location and installer demand - big-city labour rates and busy renovation seasons push quotes toward the top of the range.
- Tile material and size - ceramic is the cheapest; porcelain, glass, and natural stone (marble, slate, travertine) cost more per square foot and are harder to cut. Both oversized large-format tiles and tiny mosaics raise labour.
How tiling prices vary across Canada
Big cities cost more, and it shows up mostly in labour, not materials. Tile prices are fairly consistent nationwide, but installer labour in the Greater Toronto Area and Metro Vancouver runs roughly 15-30% above small-town and rural rates, with Calgary, Ottawa, and Victoria a bit above average too. Atlantic Canada and smaller Prairie and rural markets tend to sit at the lower end of each range.

Can I save money by supplying my own tile?
Sometimes. Buying your own tile lets you shop sales and skip the contractor's markup, though some installers prefer to source it so they control quality and quantity. Either way, order 10-15% extra to cover cuts, breakage, and future repairs.
How much does it cost to tile a bathroom floor?
A small bathroom floor (about 40-50 sq ft) usually runs $500-$1,500 installed, depending on the tile and how many cuts are needed around the toilet and vanity. That works out to roughly $12-$30 per square foot because tight spaces mean more fiddly cutting.
Is the labour or the tile itself the bigger cost?
Usually the labour. Standard ceramic or porcelain tile is about $6-$15 per square foot for the material, but skilled installation runs $7-$25+ per square foot. For showers and detailed patterns, labour is by far the larger share of the bill.
