Working in Bordon

As well as Bordon itself (GU35), we survey in Alton, Haslemere and Farnham.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Bordon: free survey, written quote, one team. For Bordon flats, we check the lease and the floor build-up before laying hard tiles on a timber floor. Whatever the age of your Bordon home, large-format tiles need flat walls, so the survey checks how much preparation they will take.

Most of Hampshire 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

Sealing natural stone and cleaning off grout haze before handover
Fixing with an adhesive suited to the tile and the surface, with levelling clips for large tiles
Grouting, trims or mitred edges, and silicone at internal corners, the bath and the tray
Measuring wall and floor areas and working out quantities with an allowance for cuts

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.

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.

Is the water hard in Bordon?

Who handles building control for bathroom tiling in Bordon?

Building control for Bordon is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

Should bathroom tiles go floor to ceiling?

Full-height tiling is easier to wipe clean and looks finished, but it adds area and cost. Tiling just the wet areas and using bathroom paint elsewhere is a reasonable way to save money in a well-ventilated room.
