Working in Ruislip

As well as Ruislip itself (HA4, HA5 and UB10), we survey in Northolt, Uxbridge and Harrow.

London homes in Ruislip often mean stairs, permits and neighbours below; we plan the logistics as carefully as the bathroom. For Ruislip flats, we check the lease and the floor build-up before laying hard tiles on a timber floor. Tiling quotes in Ruislip list the tile, the area and the preparation separately, so you can compare like for like.

Water across much of Greater London is very 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

Sealing natural stone and cleaning off grout haze before handover
Measuring wall and floor areas and working out quantities with an allowance for cuts
Tanking the shower area and the walls around the bath with a waterproof membrane or liquid system
Setting out so cuts are even and joints line up with niches, windows and edges

Decisions to make first

Edges

Metal or PVC trims are quick and protect tile edges. Mitred edges look cleaner on porcelain and take more labour.

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.
