WHAT DOES IT COST TO LAY MOSAIC TILES?

You've got your eye on mosaic tiles. But before you get started with tile adhesive (or hire someone to do it for you), you're probably wondering: what's it going to cost? In this blog, we list all the costs for you, based on the Kasba mosaic tile from Multi Mosaics.

What do mosaic tiles cost per sq. ft.?

At Multi Mosaics mosaic tile prices range on average between €65 and €110 per square meter, depending on the material, finish and pattern.

Kasba mosaic tiles are a much-chosen series with a warm look. They cost €89 per box, and a box covers about 0.9 m². That means the price converts to about €99 per m².

👉 Tip: always order 5-10% extra to cover cutting loss or future damage. You can calculate this using the calculator.

What does it cost to lay mosaic tiles?

Mosaic tiles are beautiful, but require precision work. Because they consist of small pieces stuck on mats, laying them takes more time than standard tiles. This is why the rate for a professional tiler is usually between €50 and €80 per square meter.

Factors affecting price:

  • Shape of the room (corners, recesses or edges take more time)
  • Complexity of the pattern
  • Your place of residence (hourly rates tend to be higher in the Randstad area)

What do glue and grout cost?

In addition to the tiles and laying, you will also need glue and grout. At Multi Mosaics , you can easily order this along.

  • Grout (e.g. Mapei Ultracolor Plus): €24.95 per 5 kg (good for about 5 m²) → about €5 per m²
  • Tile adhesive: average €5-10 per m², depending on substrate and adhesive type

Total materials (adhesive + grout): approx. €10-15 per m²

Sample calculation

Would you like to tile a 5 m² wall with Kasba mosaic? Then you can assume the following:

SectionCost per m²Total for 5 m²

Glue + grout€15€75
Total€179 per m²€895

Conclusion

To have mosaic tiles, such as the Kasba series, laid, you pay on average between €160 and €190 per m² including tiles, labor, glue and grout.
