Working in Maltby

We work right across Maltby — S25 and S66 — and in neighbouring Dinnington and Conisbrough.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Maltby: free survey, written quote, one team. If you want a tiled shower floor in your Maltby bathroom, the tanking and drainage are planned before the tile is chosen. For Maltby flats, we check the lease and the floor build-up before laying hard tiles on a timber floor.

Water across much of South Yorkshire is moderately hard. Mid-tone grout and matt tiles hide the odd water mark better than dark grout and high gloss. 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
Fixing with an adhesive suited to the tile and the surface, with levelling clips for large tiles
Floor preparation: overlaying timber floors with ply or backer board, or levelling a screed
Measuring wall and floor areas and working out quantities with an allowance for cuts

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.

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 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 Maltby?

Who handles building control for bathroom tiling in Maltby?

Building control for Maltby 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.

Can large tiles be used in a small bathroom?

Yes. Large-format tiles mean fewer grout lines, which can make a small room look calmer. They need flat walls and careful setting-out so that cuts are not left as thin slivers by the door or window.
