Working in Haslingden

We cover every part of Haslingden, including BB4, and nearby Rawtenstall (1.6 miles) and Accrington (3.8 miles).

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Haslingden: free survey, written quote, one team. For Haslingden flats, we check the lease and the floor build-up before laying hard tiles on a timber floor. We measure tiled areas in Haslingden bathrooms on site, so the quote is based on real square metres.

Water across much of Lancashire is soft. Soft water is kind to grout, so mid-tone and darker grouts stay looking fresh. 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
Floor preparation: overlaying timber floors with ply or backer board, or levelling a screed
Setting out so cuts are even and joints line up with niches, windows and edges
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.

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.
