We cover every part of Sunbury-on-Thames, including KT12, TW16 and TW17, and nearby Walton-on-Thames (1.2 miles) and West Molesey (1.7 miles).
Homes in and around Sunbury-on-Thames vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. Tiling quotes in Sunbury-on-Thames list the tile, the area and the preparation separately, so you can compare like for like. Whatever the age of your Sunbury-on-Thames home, large-format tiles need flat walls, so the survey checks how much preparation they will take.
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
- Checking walls for flatness and strength, and boarding with cement-based backer board where needed
- Grouting, trims or mitred edges, and silicone at internal corners, the bath and the tray
- Tanking the shower area and the walls around the bath with a waterproof membrane or liquid system
- Measuring wall and floor areas and working out quantities with an allowance for cuts
Decisions to make first
Grout
Cement-based grout is standard. Epoxy grout resists stains and mould better and suits showers, but takes longer to apply and costs more.
Natural stone
Marble, limestone and travertine need sealing and gentle cleaners, and can mark. Stone-effect porcelain gives a similar look without the upkeep.
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.
