I would think that would be the normal reaction if you think what the ratio of female tiler is in the country.
i guess if you called a babysitter, ironing service, house cleaner, curtain makers etc that it would be the opposite but there are no rules to who can do what job.

As another thought , i would have thought that you could have made it clear on your advertising that you are female as it can work in your favour. I know in my area there are 2 women tilers ( or there were) and they always stated the fact they were female in all their ads.

If you thought that maybe someone would be put off in some way by a female then why not run 2 seperate ads, one stating you are female and the other just as a tiler.

Thats a though...is there such a thing as a Tileress??:grin:
