Wall and floor tiling in Bishop's Stortford, priced per square metre
Tiling is the detail everyone looks at. We set out every room from the centre line so cuts land in sensible places, and we use the right adhesive and grout for the substrate rather than whatever is in the van.
Our tiling covers the whole house, not only the bathroom. Kitchen floors, hallways that take muddy boots every day, utility rooms, splashbacks behind the hob and outdoor porcelain patios are all part of the work.
Large format porcelain is back buttered and levelled with clips so neighbouring edges sit flush. Metro, mosaic, patterned encaustic and natural stone each get the adhesive and grout that suits them, and stone is sealed before and after grouting.
Edges are finished with trim or neat mitres rather than a thick line of silicone, and movement joints go in where a large floor needs them.

Kitchen and hallway floors
A tiled floor through a kitchen and hall has to be flat, because a long run shows every rise and dip. We check the subfloor first, level it where needed, and plan the set out so cut tiles fall under units and at door thresholds rather than in the middle of the room.
Splashbacks and feature walls
Splashbacks go on after the worktop is fitted, and are set out around sockets, windows and the hob so cuts look deliberate. Feature walls in porcelain or stone are planned on paper first so the pattern lines up with doors and shelves.
