Working in Aylesbury

We cover every part of Aylesbury, including HP19, HP20 and HP21, and nearby Leighton Buzzard (9.6 miles) and Berkhamsted (11.3 miles).

Homes in and around Aylesbury vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. We measure tiled areas in Aylesbury bathrooms on site, so the quote is based on real square metres. Tiling quotes in Aylesbury list the tile, the area and the preparation separately, so you can compare like for like.

Supplies across most of Buckinghamshire are hard. 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

Tanking the shower area and the walls around the bath with a waterproof membrane or liquid system
Measuring wall and floor areas and working out quantities with an allowance for cuts
Fixing with an adhesive suited to the tile and the surface, with levelling clips for large tiles
Floor preparation: overlaying timber floors with ply or backer board, or levelling a screed

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 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.
