Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Auchterarder: free survey, written quote, one team. Tiling quotes in Auchterarder list the tile, the area and the preparation separately, so you can compare like for like. For Auchterarder flats, we check your title deeds and any deed of conditions and the floor build-up before laying hard tiles on a timber floor.

Water across much of Perth and Kinross 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

Sealing natural stone and cleaning off grout haze before handover
Setting out so cuts are even and joints line up with niches, windows and edges
Checking walls for flatness and strength, and boarding with cement-based backer board where needed
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.

Edges

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

Rules that apply in Scotland

In Scotland, re-tiling does not need a building warrant. Forming a new bathroom or altering drainage for a tiled shower floor may, so check before the floor is opened.

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.
