Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Amersham on the Hill: free survey, written quote, one team.

We measure tiled areas in Amersham on the Hill bathrooms on site, so the quote is based on real square metres.
Most of Buckinghamshire has hard water. Hard water leaves white marks on dark grout and gloss tiles, so matt finishes and stain-resistant grout are the practical choice. 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
- Grouting, trims or mitred edges, and silicone at internal corners, the bath and the tray
- Checking walls for flatness and strength, and boarding with cement-based backer board where needed
- Sealing natural stone and cleaning off grout haze before handover
Decisions to make first
Tile size
Large-format tiles mean fewer grout lines but need flat walls and more preparation. Small tiles and mosaics follow uneven surfaces and grip better underfoot.
Edges
Metal or PVC trims are quick and protect tile edges. Mitred edges look cleaner on porcelain and take more labour.
Rules that apply in England
In England, tiling itself is not building regulations work. If it is part of forming a level shower floor with new drainage, that drainage can be Part H work, and any new electrics are covered by Part P.
