Working in Mangotsfield

We cover every part of Mangotsfield, including BS5, BS15 and BS16, and nearby Kingswood (2.4 miles) and Keynsham (5.1 miles).

Homes in and around Mangotsfield vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. We measure tiled areas in Mangotsfield bathrooms on site, so the quote is based on real square metres. If you want a tiled shower floor in your Mangotsfield bathroom, the tanking and drainage are planned before the tile is chosen.

Most of Gloucestershire 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

Tanking the shower area and the walls around the bath with a waterproof membrane or liquid system
Checking walls for flatness and strength, and boarding with cement-based backer board where needed
Grouting, trims or mitred edges, and silicone at internal corners, the bath and the tray
Fixing with an adhesive suited to the tile and the surface, with levelling clips for large tiles

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.

Ceramic or porcelain

Ceramic is lighter, easier to cut and cheaper, and is fine on walls. Porcelain is denser and absorbs less water, so it suits floors and showers.

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.

How long does bathroom tiling take?

Is the home survey in Mangotsfield 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.

Can large tiles be used in a small bathroom?

Yes. Large-format tiles mean fewer grout lines, which can make a small room look calmer. They need flat walls and careful setting-out so that cuts are not left as thin slivers by the door or window.
