The main apps UK tilers use in 2026 are TileIQ (built only for tilers, from £9.99 a month), Tradify (general job management, from about £34 per user), Traddie (all trades, from £9.99), Powered Now (all trades, from £28 plus VAT), Mucka (voice-first AI, free version available) and Tilers Mate (browser-based quoting).
For buying materials, the Topps Tiles Trade app gives trade pricing and stock checks.
We make TileIQ, so it's listed first, and we're not neutral. We've kept to facts taken from each app's own website or an independent listing, and we've linked every source at the end. Prices and features change often, so check each app's site before you sign up.

How to choose
- Do you want the tiling maths done for you? General trade apps leave tiles, adhesive, grout and tanking quantities to you. TileIQ and Tilers Mate work them out.
- Do you work alone or with a team? Per-user pricing adds up quickly if you take someone on.
- Do you need it to work without signal? Check before you rely on it on site.
- Which accounting software do you use? Check the app links to it.
- Try before you pay. Most offer a free trial, so price one real job in each and see which is quickest.
Whichever you pick, our free tiling calculator and guide to what tilers charge are there to check your figures.
