Zellige Throughout — One House, One Material
A full-home tiling commission in Corrimal — handmade 20mm Moroccan zellige tiles set in herringbone across two bathrooms, the laundry, kitchen splashback and benchtop, and a custom TV cabinet. Every tiled surface in the home, one material, one team.
Handmade Moroccan Zellige — Herringbone Throughout
Zellige is one of the most demanding tiles to work with. Each tile is hand-pressed and kiln-fired, which means the thickness, surface texture, and face dimension vary from piece to piece — intentionally so, as the variation is part of what gives zellige its character. The challenge is that standard tiling technique doesn't apply. Back-buttering is mandatory, adhesive selection matters more than it does with a calibrated tile, and the grout joint needs to accommodate movement without cracking. The herringbone pattern adds another layer: the set-out datum has to be established precisely, or the pattern visibly drifts on a long run. This commission covered the entire home — two bathrooms, laundry, kitchen, TV cabinet — all in the same tile, all in herringbone. The consistency across every surface is what makes the home feel resolved.
Green Fishscale Kitchen Splashback
A kitchen splashback in green fishscale — a format that reads very differently to a standard subway tile and demands precise layout to get the scallop pattern sitting correctly at the edges and around powerpoints. The green works with the cabinetry and bench to anchor the kitchen without competing with it.
Why Corrimal Homeowners Choose Stone & Steam
The projects above are local — both in Corrimal. When you ask for a reference, we can point you to a house in your suburb. That's the difference between a company that claims to cover the area and one that actually works here.
Experience with demanding materials
Zellige, fishscale, herringbone, large-format stone-look porcelain — these aren't materials you pick up quickly. The zellige job above required specific adhesive, careful back-buttering on every tile, and a precise herringbone datum maintained across every room in the home. Stone & Steam has done this work and knows what it takes to get the result right. If you're specifying something unusual, bring it to us early.
Whole-home tiling — one scope, one team
The Corrimal zellige job covered bathrooms, laundry, kitchen, and a TV cabinet. When the same material is running through every room, consistency matters more than it does on a single-room job. One person setting out the pattern, managing the adhesive batch, and controlling the grout mix produces a different result than multiple teams working separately.
Kitchen splashbacks — not just bathrooms
Most bathroom renovators don't do kitchens. Stone & Steam tiles kitchen splashbacks — fishscale, herringbone, zellige, standard format — alongside bathroom and laundry work or as standalone jobs. If the material is the same across the kitchen and bathroom, we can manage both.
Based in the Illawarra — no travel premium
Stone & Steam is Illawarra-based. Corrimal is on our doorstep — no travel margin in your quote, faster response, and a track record you can verify locally.

Request a quoteWhat Our Clients Say
"We wanted zellige throughout the whole house — bathrooms, kitchen, laundry, even the TV cabinet. Patrick was the only tiler who'd actually worked with the material before and understood what we were asking for. The result is exactly what we imagined."
"The fishscale splashback is the thing people notice first when they walk into the kitchen. Clean layout, the pattern sits perfectly around the powerpoints. Stone & Steam did it as part of a larger job and the quality is consistent throughout."
"Patrick understood the material from day one. He flagged the back-buttering requirement, sorted the adhesive spec, and explained the grout selection before we'd even signed anything. That level of knowledge is rare."
