Working in Uxbridge
We work right across Uxbridge — SL0, UB8 and UB10 — and in neighbouring Ruislip and Hayes.
London homes in Uxbridge often mean stairs, permits and neighbours below; we plan the logistics as carefully as the bathroom. For Uxbridge flats, we check the lease and the floor build-up before laying hard tiles on a timber floor. If you want a tiled shower floor in your Uxbridge bathroom, the tanking and drainage are planned before the tile is chosen.
Most of Greater London has very 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
- Setting out so cuts are even and joints line up with niches, windows and edges
- Sealing natural stone and cleaning off grout haze before handover
- Grouting, trims or mitred edges, and silicone at internal corners, the bath and the tray
- Floor preparation: overlaying timber floors with ply or backer board, or levelling a screed
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.
Grout
Cement-based grout is standard. Epoxy grout resists stains and mould better and suits showers, but takes longer to apply and costs more.
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.
