Tiles are the cornerstone of any home renovation, serving versatile functionality and aesthetic appeal in living areas, bathrooms and kitchens. While many Singaporeans turn to popular local tile suppliers such as Hafary or Lian Seng Hin Trading Co, others often find that the prices might be beyond their renovation budget range.
For homeowners looking to stretch their dollar, tile shopping in JB may just be the perfect solution. Whether you’re looking for a sleek modern aesthetic or a unique standout design, there’s definitely a good deal to be found at these 5 tile shops in JB, where prices are as low as $0.53 per tile.

Unlike shops in Singapore, Jubin BMS does not provide free tile samples. However, upon request, the shop may allow customers to purchase single tile samples of shortlisted designs to bring back home for physical comparison. Further liaising can be done via WhatsApp, and the final online payment can be transferred remotely.
Additionally, homeowners should note that Jubin BMS only sells tiles by the box rather than by square foot or piece. The store also offers a specialised Singapore delivery service – larger purchases may even qualify for free delivery.
