Working in Inverurie

As well as Inverurie itself (AB51), we survey in Aberdeen, Peterhead and Fraserburgh.

Inverurie gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. Tiling quotes in Inverurie list the tile, the area and the preparation separately, so you can compare like for like. We measure tiled areas in Inverurie bathrooms on site, so the quote is based on real square metres.

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

Setting out so cuts are even and joints line up with niches, windows and edges
Grouting, trims or mitred edges, and silicone at internal corners, the bath and the tray
Sealing natural stone and cleaning off grout haze before handover
Tanking the shower area and the walls around the bath with a waterproof membrane or liquid system

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.

Will bathroom tiling in Inverurie need a building warrant?

How long does bathroom tiling take?

Allow 2–4 working days on site for most jobs, plus the lead time for products after you approve the quote. We give you a day-by-day plan before work starts in Inverurie.

What tiles are best for a bathroom floor?

Porcelain is usually the most practical bathroom floor tile, because it absorbs very little water and wears well. Choose a matt or textured finish with a slip rating of R10 or above. Our bathroom tiles guide covers sizes and finishes in more detail.
