Working in Bartley Green

As well as Bartley Green itself (B29, B32 and B62), we survey in Halesowen, Smethwick and Birmingham.

Bartley Green gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. We measure tiled areas in Bartley Green bathrooms on site, so the quote is based on real square metres. For Bartley Green flats, we check the lease and the floor build-up before laying hard tiles on a timber floor.

Water hardness varies across the West Midlands: some supplies are soft, others moderately hard or 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
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
Sealing natural stone and cleaning off grout haze before handover

Decisions to make first

Edges

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

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.
