Kitchen tiling in Palma: what we do, timescale and price

At Tecnic Project, a renovation company in Palma, we tile kitchens without changing the units: we remove the old splashback tiles, prepare the wall and lay the material you choose in 2 or 3 days, without removing the worktop. If the floor or the walls behind the units are also being tiled, the units have to come out and it takes 4-6 days. The labour price depends on the area and the type of tile: we measure up and give it to you in writing, line by line, before we start. Tiles are extra, with a 10% discount, as are the fees if paperwork is needed.

How much does it cost to tile a kitchen in Palma?

These are the timescales for each job and, for reference, the labour if you renovate the whole kitchen:

JobTimescaleLabour
Splashback between worktop and wall units, without removing units2-3 daysFixed in writing after measuring
Splashback and floor, or walls behind the units, removing them4-6 daysFixed in writing after measuring
Full kitchen (wall of up to 40 m²), tiling included2-4 weeks€4,310 + VAT

What moves the price most is the area, tile format, wall condition and the cuts around windows, sockets and corners. We see it when we measure and you'll see it itemised in the quote. You choose the tiles and corner trims, with a 10% discount. What's included in the full kitchen is set out in kitchen renovations in Palma.

What your kitchen tiling includes

We hand over the wall tiled, sealed and clean.

  • A worker, with his back to the camera, uses a chisel and mallet to remove old 1970s border tiles from a kitchen splashback

    Protection and removal

    We cover the units, worktop and floor and remove the old tiles without damaging what stays.

  • Close-up of a tiler's hands marking with a pencil on the red line of a laser level

    Preparation and setting out

    We even out and prime the wall and set out the layout to keep cuts to a minimum and make them symmetrical in visible areas.

  • Close-up of hands using a rubber float to grout a newly tiled kitchen splashback with matt porcelain tiles.

    Laying and grouting

    We lay each tile with the right adhesive and grout to match the tile.

  • Sealing and cleaning

    Anti-mould silicone where the tiles meet the worktop and sink, final clean and rubble removed.

When you can tile without removing the units

In many cases, if you're changing the splashback: the strip between worktop and wall units, the wall behind the extractor hood or the window wall. We work with everything protected and in place, and it takes 2 or 3 days.

The units have to come out if you're also changing the floor or tiling behind them; then it takes 4-6 days. If you're also changing the worktop, it's best to do that before tiling, because the tiles sit on it. And if the kitchen needs more, see the full kitchen renovation, which already includes tiling.

What to put on your kitchen wall

We advise you based on how you use your kitchen. There are more ideas in the guide to materials for renovating a kitchen and, if you're also changing the floor, in the best flooring for kitchens. The most common choices for the wall:

  • Large-format porcelain (60×120 or larger): fewer joints and a continuous surface, ideal for kitchens open to the living room. Needs a very flat wall.
  • Matt stone-effect porcelain or ceramic: stands up to moisture, knocks and stains, and offers the best balance on price.
  • The same material as the worktop running up the splashback to the wall units: a continuous finish with no joints.
  • Microcement: continuous and joint-free, but the sealant has to be renewed every few years.
  • Deep colours (green, graphite, terracotta): they add character alongside wooden or matt lacquered units.

Frequently asked questions about kitchen tiling in Palma

How much does it cost to tile a kitchen in Palma?

It depends on the area, the tile and the condition of the wall, so we give you the labour price in writing after measuring, line by line. If you renovate the whole kitchen, tiling is included in the €4,310 + VAT for a full kitchen, for a kitchen with one wall of up to 40 m².

Can I tile the kitchen without removing the units or worktop?

Yes, in many cases. If you're only changing the splashback between worktop and wall units, it can be tiled with everything in place in 2 or 3 days. If the floor or the wall behind the units is included too, they have to come out and it takes 4-6 days.

Do I need council permission to tile my kitchen in Palma?

If the work is indoors, needs no technical project and costs under €3,000, on urban land no paperwork is needed, except in BIC-protected or listed buildings or those outside current planning rules, and provided it isn't added to other work on the home that year. Above that, prior notification is enough: work starts the next day and fees come to around 5.3% of the construction cost. We submit it.

Are the tiles included in the price?

No. You choose the tiles and trims, with our advice and a 10% discount on well-known brands. The price we give you is for labour.

Do you also tile kitchen floors or bathrooms?

Yes. The kitchen floor together with the splashback takes 4-6 days. In bathrooms, the full bathroom includes tiling of up to 22 m² of wall and 3 m² of floor for €3,690 + VAT in labour.
