Working in Redhill

We work right across Redhill — RH1 and RH2 — and in neighbouring Reigate and Horley.

Homes in and around Redhill vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. Tiling quotes in Redhill list the tile, the area and the preparation separately, so you can compare like for like. If your Redhill home has hard water, larger tiles and epoxy grout leave fewer joints for limescale to build up in.

Water across much of Surrey is hard. 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

Setting out so cuts are even and joints line up with niches, windows and edges
Sealing natural stone and cleaning off grout haze before handover
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

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.

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 Redhill?

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.
