Tile Installation Invoice Template

Tile installation invoices should show where the tile was installed, how much area was covered, and how labor and materials were priced.

Project details

• Client name and contact
• Project address
• Area tiled (bathroom floor, shower walls, kitchen backsplash, etc.)
• Tile type and layout/pattern (optional but helpful)

Labor and materials

• Labor priced per square foot or per job
• Tile materials (if supplied by installer)
• Mortar/thinset and underlayment
• Grout, caulk, and finishing
• Trim pieces or edging (if used)

Common add-ons

• Demolition/removal of old tile
• Subfloor repairs or leveling
• Waterproofing (for showers/wet areas)
• Sealing (for stone or grout)
• Disposal/dump fees

Totals

• Subtotal, sales tax (if applicable), total due
• Payment terms and deposit credits (if any)

Tile installation pricing often depends on tile size, pattern complexity, and site conditions.

Labor pricing (common ranges)

• Floor tile installation: $5–$15 per sq ft
• Shower walls: $10–$25 per sq ft
• Backsplash: $8–$20 per sq ft
• Large-format tile (extra handling): higher range
• Mosaic or intricate patterns: higher range

Material-related charges

• Thinset/adhesive, underlayment, backer board
• Grout and caulk
• Sealant (stone and grout sealing)

Other costs

• Demolition/removal: $200–$800+ depending on scope
• Subfloor repairs/leveling: priced per job or per sq ft
• Waterproofing systems: often quoted separately

Clear line items help clients understand why a shower or mosaic install costs more than standard floor tile.

Square-foot billing is common and easy for clients to understand—if measurements are documented.

Best practices

• List measured square footage as quantity
• Use separate labor and materials lines (if you supply materials)
• Add separate line items for demolition, leveling, waterproofing, and sealing
• Note that final square footage may be confirmed after on-site measurement

Example

• “Tile installation labor — 120 sq ft × $8.50”
• “Tile materials — 120 sq ft × $4.25”
• “Grout and finishing — flat fee”

This structure keeps the invoice transparent and easy to approve.

Wet areas and high-detail installs often require additional work beyond standard tile setting.

Common shower add-ons

• Waterproofing membrane/system
• Slope and pan prep
• Niche/shelf detailing
• Extra cuts and edge finishing
• Sealing (especially for natural stone)

If waterproofing is part of the job, itemize it. Clients often don’t realize it’s a separate labor/material cost—and it’s one of the most important parts of a long-lasting installation.
