How do you price a floor or wall tiling project?
We quote floor and wall tiling individually because the cost depends on several factors: the total area, the tile size and pattern, the condition of the existing surface, and whether levelling or removal of old tiles is required. After assessing the space we provide a free, detailed quote that sets out exactly what is included, so you can budget with confidence and there are no unexpected charges.
Do you prepare and level the surface before tiling?
Yes. A smooth, level and stable base is essential for a professional tiling result. Before any tile is laid we assess the existing surface and carry out the necessary preparation, which can include floor levelling and substrate correction. Skipping this step is a common cause of tile lippage, cracking and uneven wear, so we never cut corners on preparation.
What types of tiles can you lay on floors and walls?
We install ceramic, porcelain and natural stone tiles in a wide range of sizes, colours and patterns. Floor tiles are chosen with durability and slip resistance in mind, while wall tiles open up more decorative options. We are happy to advise on which tiles suit the room, the level of foot traffic and the style you are aiming for, whether that is sleek and modern or warm and traditional.
Can you tile over existing tiles or do they need removing?
It depends on the condition of the existing surface. In some cases tiling over sound, well-bonded tiles is possible, but in many situations removing the old tiles produces a better and longer-lasting result because it allows us to inspect and correct the base underneath. We will assess your floors and walls and recommend the right approach for your project as part of the quote.
How do you finish the tiles once they are laid?
After the tiles are set we grout the joints, filling them evenly and wiping the surface clean for a polished finish. Where appropriate we also apply sealants to protect the tiles and grout from moisture and staining, which improves durability and makes ongoing cleaning easier. The result is a hard-wearing surface that looks sharp and is built to last.
How long will floor and wall tiling take?
The timeframe depends on the area being tiled, the tile format and the amount of preparation involved. A single room is generally completed quickly, while larger or multi-room projects take longer. We provide a realistic schedule with your quote and keep you informed throughout, working tidily and respecting your home or business at every stage.
