TileIQ vs Tradify: which is better for a tiler?

Quick answer

Tradify is a job management app for trade businesses of all kinds, strong on scheduling, timesheets and teams. It's priced per user, from about £34 a month each.

TileIQ is built only for tilers: it measures rooms, works out tiles, adhesive, grout and tanking, and turns that into a quote and invoice. Its founding offer is £9.99 a month.

We make TileIQ, so we're not neutral. We've kept to facts we could check. Prices and features change, so check Tradify's own website before you decide.

Where TileIQ is a good fit

General job apps leave the tiling maths to you. TileIQ does it:

  • Quick quote: when you just need a price fast, without setting up a full job.
  • Measure and price in one go: walls and floors, room by room, or straight from a Leica Disto.
  • Materials worked out: tiles, boxes, adhesive, grout, tanking and prep, with wastage for the layout.
  • Quote to invoice: the same job flows through, sent to Xero, FreeAgent or QuickBooks.
  • After the job: review requests, social posts from your photos and a free portfolio website.
  • Priced for a sole trader: one low monthly price rather than per user.

Price

Tradify is priced per user, from about £34 per user per month, with text messages charged extra. TileIQ's founding offer is £9.99 a month or £79.99 a year, kept while you stay subscribed. For a one-person tiling business that's a big difference.

Which should you choose?

  • You're a tiler and want measuring, materials and quoting done for you: TileIQ.
  • You're a sole trader watching costs: TileIQ.
