“AJ and his team have tiled two houses for me, and I couldn't be happier with their work.”
“From start to finish, the job was handled with real professionalism, clear communication, tidy work, and genuine care taken at every step.”

AJ Dryden
Grew up on a farm on the Taieri Plains. Has called Wānaka home for 22 years and been tiling for 15 of them, with Jordan beside him.
Most of the work is with builders, architects and designers on new homes around Wānaka and Cromwell, where the tile is part of the architecture and the set-out has to be right.
