Working in Nantwich

We work right across Nantwich — CW5 — and in neighbouring Crewe and Sandbach.

Nantwich gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. For Nantwich flats, we check the lease and the floor build-up before laying hard tiles on a timber floor. We measure tiled areas in Nantwich bathrooms on site, so the quote is based on real square metres.

Most of Cheshire has moderately hard water. Mid-tone grout and matt tiles hide the odd water mark better than dark grout and high gloss. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Measuring wall and floor areas and working out quantities with an allowance for cuts
Checking walls for flatness and strength, and boarding with cement-based backer board where needed
Fixing with an adhesive suited to the tile and the surface, with levelling clips for large tiles
Setting out so cuts are even and joints line up with niches, windows and edges

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.

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.

Do you cover CW5 in Nantwich?

Yes. We cover all of Nantwich, including CW5, and nearby Crewe, Sandbach and Winsford. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Nantwich?

Do I need to tank a bathroom before tiling?

The shower area should always be tanked, because tiles and grout are not waterproof on their own. Around a bath with a shower over it, tanking the walls to above the shower head is sensible. A wet room needs the whole floor and the lower walls tanked.
