Floor Tiling
Level, durable floor tiling for living areas, hallways, laundries and commercial spaces — laid on a properly prepared base.
A tiled floor only performs as well as the base beneath it. Premium Tiling Services prepares the substrate properly — checking it is flat, sound and ready — then lays floor tile that stays level, even and comfortable underfoot for years.
We tile living areas, hallways, entryways, laundries and commercial spaces in standard and large-format tile, with the setting-out planned so the room reads well and lippage between tiles is kept to a minimum.

Questions
Floor Tiling — your questions answered.
Do you prepare the floor before tiling?
Yes — preparation is half the job. Before any tile goes down we check the substrate is flat, sound and clean, and address dips, high spots or movement as needed. A well-prepared base is what keeps a tiled floor level, stops tiles drumming or cracking, and gives a finish that lasts. We will tell you during the quote if your floor needs extra preparation so there are no surprises later.
Can you lay large-format floor tiles?
Yes. Large-format tiles create a clean, open look with fewer grout lines, and we lay them regularly. They do demand a very flat substrate and careful technique to keep lippage — the slight height difference between tile edges — to a minimum. We will assess your floor and let you know what preparation it needs so a large-format finish sits flat and even.
Can you tile over an existing tiled floor?
Sometimes — it depends on the condition of the existing floor, the height build-up it would create, and how it meets doorways and adjoining rooms. In some cases tiling over is sound and sensible; in others, removing the old floor is the better long-term choice. We will inspect it, explain the options honestly, and recommend the approach that gives you the best result.
How long before I can walk on a newly tiled floor?
Tiles need time for the adhesive to set and the grout to cure before the floor takes full traffic. The exact wait depends on the products used and conditions on site, but we will give you clear guidance for your specific job and let you know when the floor is ready for light use and for normal use. Allowing that curing time is important for a hard-wearing result.
What floor tile suits a high-traffic area?
For hallways, living areas and commercial spaces, porcelain and quality ceramic tiles wear well and clean easily. Slip rating matters in entries, laundries and anywhere that can get wet. We are happy to talk through formats and finishes during the quote and recommend options that balance how the floor looks with how it will hold up to daily traffic.
Do you tile laundry and wet-area floors?
Yes. Laundry, bathroom and other wet-area floors are part of our regular work, and they need correct falls to the drain and proper waterproofing where required. We tile these floors so water runs where it should and the surface stays safe underfoot. We will explain what is involved for your specific space when we quote.
Can you tile commercial floors?
Yes. We tile commercial and high-traffic floors as well as residential. Commercial work often has its own requirements around durability, slip rating and working around a business’s hours, and we are happy to discuss scheduling and specification so the job is done with minimal disruption and a finish that stands up to constant use.
