Subject: Application for the tiler position
Dear Mr Pasquier,
Your company is looking for a qualified tiler for renovation projects. I have laid ceramic tiles and natural stone for eight years, in new builds and conversions.
As a qualified tiler, I work at Carrelages du Valais Sàrl. I prepare substrates, waterproof bathrooms and walk-in showers and lay large formats up to 120 × 120 cm. I run flat renovations on my own.
The quality of your work in high-end homes appeals to me: that is the standard I am looking for.
I am available from 1 March and hold a category B driving licence. I would be glad to meet you.
Kind regards,
Rui Carvalho
