What this service includes
Tiling work we take on
Tiling shows every shortcut, so we spend the time on what sits behind it. Walls are checked and made flat, floors are levelled and boards are stiffened where needed before the first tile goes down.
We tile as part of our bathroom and kitchen work, and as a standalone service for customers who already have their tiles and just need a tiler.
- Substrate preparation
- Levelling compounds, backer boards, priming and stiffening floors that flex.
- Bathroom tiling
- Full height walls, shower enclosures, wet rooms and neat trims at every edge.
- Kitchen tiling
- Splashbacks, feature walls and floors laid to suit the units and doorways.
- Floor tiling
- Porcelain, ceramic and natural stone in hallways, kitchens and utility rooms.
- Large format tiles
- Levelling systems used so big tiles sit flat with no lipping between them.
- Grouting and sealing
- Correct grout for the setting, silicone to movement joints and sealing of porous stone.

What customers say about our tiling
View all reviewsSetting out was thought through so the cuts land in sensible places. The grout lines are straight, which is all I wanted.
Michael E.Sutton
Large format tiles on an uneven floor and it came out flat. Pleased with it.

Did the splashback in a day and cleaned up after.

FAQs
Tiling questions
If your question is not covered here, call or send a message and we will answer it directly.
- Can you tile over existing tiles?
- Sometimes, if the existing tiles are sound, flat and well bonded. More often the better result comes from removing them and preparing the surface, and we will tell you which applies.
- Do you supply tiles?
- Most customers choose and buy their own tiles. We are happy to advise on quantities and suitability, and we supply adhesive, grout and trims.
- How long before I can use the room?
- Floors generally need around twenty four hours before normal use, sometimes longer for large format tiles and stone. We will confirm timings on the day.
- Can you tile a wooden floor?
- Yes, with the right preparation. Boards usually need overboarding or a decoupling layer so movement in the timber does not crack the tiles.
