Working in Fraserburgh

We work right across Fraserburgh — AB43 — and in neighbouring Peterhead and Inverurie.

Fraserburgh gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. Tiling quotes in Fraserburgh list the tile, the area and the preparation separately, so you can compare like for like. If you want a tiled shower floor in your Fraserburgh bathroom, the tanking and drainage are planned before the tile is chosen.

Supplies across most of Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire are soft. Soft water is kind to grout, so mid-tone and darker grouts stay looking fresh. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Floor preparation: overlaying timber floors with ply or backer board, or levelling a screed
Sealing natural stone and cleaning off grout haze before handover
Checking walls for flatness and strength, and boarding with cement-based backer board where needed
Setting out so cuts are even and joints line up with niches, windows and edges

Decisions to make first

Natural stone

Marble, limestone and travertine need sealing and gentle cleaners, and can mark. Stone-effect porcelain gives a similar look without the upkeep.

Floor grip

For a bathroom floor, choose a matt or textured tile with a slip rating of R10 or above. Smaller tiles with more grout lines grip better in a shower.

Rules that apply in Scotland

In Scotland, re-tiling does not need a building warrant. Forming a new bathroom or altering drainage for a tiled shower floor may, so check before the floor is opened.

More about bathroom tiling

Bathroom tiling in Fraserburgh: questions

How much should I budget for bathroom tiling in Fraserburgh?

Bathroom tiling in Fraserburgh usually costs £45–£85 per m² including VAT. Where you land in that range depends on the size of the room, whether the layout changes and the products you choose. After the free survey you get an itemised written quote, and the price is fixed in writing once the layout and products are agreed.

Is the home survey in Fraserburgh really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Do you cover AB43 in Fraserburgh?

Yes. We cover all of Fraserburgh, including AB43, and nearby Peterhead, Inverurie and Aberdeen. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Fraserburgh?

Should bathroom tiles go floor to ceiling?

Full-height tiling is easier to wipe clean and looks finished, but it adds area and cost. Tiling just the wet areas and using bathroom paint elsewhere is a reasonable way to save money in a well-ventilated room.
