Tile and marble flooring covers the supply and installation of porcelain, ceramic, homogeneous, natural stone, and marble tiles for homes and commercial units across Petaling Jaya.

We've reviewed 7 businesses in Petaling Jaya that offer this service, from small installation crews to larger outfits that also handle supply of imported marble and granite.
What the work actually involves
A proper tile or marble job starts with surface preparation: leveling the existing floor (screeding if needed), checking for moisture issues, and planning tile layout to minimize awkward cuts at doorways and corners. Marble in particular needs careful handling since slabs vary in vein pattern and can chip at the edges if rushed. After laying, joints need consistent grouting, and marble usually needs sealing to resist staining. Expansion joints matter too, especially for larger areas or homes exposed to temperature shifts, since skipping them is a common cause of tiles popping or cracking months later.
What to check before hiring
- Whether they show photos of completed work, ideally in homes or units similar in size to yours
- How they quote: per square foot including materials, or labor only with you sourcing tiles/marble separately
- Who handles disposal of old flooring and debris
- Whether they offer a workmanship warranty and what it actually covers (hollow tiles, cracking, uneven grout lines)
- How they price marble specifically, since natural stone costs vary a lot by origin, thickness, and finish
