Working in Clevedon

In Clevedon we cover BS21; we also cover Nailsea, 4.3 miles away, and Portishead.

Clevedon gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. Whatever the age of your Clevedon home, large-format tiles need flat walls, so the survey checks how much preparation they will take. For Clevedon flats, we check the lease and the floor build-up before laying hard tiles on a timber floor.

Most of Somerset 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

Grouting, trims or mitred edges, and silicone at internal corners, the bath and the tray
Checking walls for flatness and strength, and boarding with cement-based backer board where needed
Floor preparation: overlaying timber floors with ply or backer board, or levelling a screed
Tanking the shower area and the walls around the bath with a waterproof membrane or liquid system

Decisions to make first

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.

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.
