TileCheck: On-Demand Tile Installation Audit Service (Local)

A marketplace connecting homeowners mid-project with local, vetted tile installers for 1–2 hour in-person site audits ($150–$250 per visit). The installer inspects the homeowner's setup, identifies angle/waterproofing issues before they fail, and provides a written report + photo markup with corrective steps. Homeowners book via app/website; installers are paid per audit + get a 15% platform fee.

SERVICE

15 weeks • 70% confidence

Value Proposition

Prevents costly rework by catching mistakes in-progress (not after water damage). Beats forums because it's a real person, in your bathroom, with liability insurance and a reputation. Beats hiring a full contractor because it's a targeted audit, not a full redo.

Target Audience

DIY homeowners who've already started tiling and want a 'safety check' before grouting; contractors who want to offer audit services to their clients

Key Features

  • Mobile-first booking (date, time, address, photos of current work)
  • Installer profile with reviews, certifications, and service area (5-mile radius)
  • In-person 60-90 min audit with angle measurements, waterproofing checks, and photo markup
  • And more, with full implementation detail...

Original Problem

Homeowners struggle to find accurate guidance on bathroom tile installation angles and waterproofing specifications

DIY homeowners attempting bathroom renovations, particularly around high-moisture areas like window stools above bathtubs, lack clear technical specifications for tile angles and installation methods. Current solutions are fragmented across forums and outdated guides, leaving people uncertain about proper waterproofing, drainage angles, and building codes, resulting in costly mistakes, water damage, and failed renovations.
