Outdoor Tiling for Patios, Decks & Alfresco Areas

At Lay My Tiles, we specialise in outdoor tiling for patios, back decks and undercover entertaining areas across the Gold Coast. With more than 20 years on the tools, we lay slip-rated porcelain, ceramic, natural stone and paver-format tiles designed to handle sun, rain and heavy foot traffic without lifting, cracking or fading. Outdoor areas are far less forgiving than interiors — falls have to be right, movement joints have to be planned, and the substrate has to be prepared properly before a single tile goes down. We handle all of it, from levelling and priming through to laying, grouting and sealing, so your alfresco area looks sharp and stays that way through Queensland summers. Whether it's a new patio off the back of a build or an old deck area being brought back to life, we'll walk you through tile options, slip ratings and layout before we start.

We also handle kitchen splash backs and bathrooms & water proofing. For a free on-site quotation, call 0438 536 431.

Preparation, Falls and Weatherproofing

Outdoor tiling lives or dies on what happens before the tiles are laid. We check and correct the substrate, screed to the correct falls so water runs away from the house rather than pooling at doorways, and install external-grade waterproofing where the area sits above a habitable space or against the building. We use flexible, exterior-rated adhesives and grouts that cope with thermal movement, set out movement joints at the right spacings, and finish edges with proper trims or step nosings rather than raw cuts. Where the outdoor area meets a step, a drain or a pool edge, we detail it so the transition is clean underfoot and safe when wet.

Tile Over Tile

Tired of tired old tiles? We lay new tiles straight over your existing ones — no jackhammers, no skip bin, no days of demolition dust through the house. Where the existing surface is sound, tiling over the top is the fastest way to bring a patio, back deck or undercover outdoor area back to life.

We prepare and prime the existing tiles, waterproof where it's needed, then lay your new tiles over the top. It's a quicker turnaround, far less mess, and it usually works out more cost-effective than a full strip-out — with a finish that looks like it was always meant to be there.
