Working in Brierley Hill

We cover every part of Brierley Hill, including DY2, DY5 and DY8, and nearby Stourbridge (2 miles) and Dudley (2 miles).

In Brierley Hill, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If you want a tiled shower floor in your Brierley Hill bathroom, the tanking and drainage are planned before the tile is chosen. Tiling quotes in Brierley Hill list the tile, the area and the preparation separately, so you can compare like for like.

Supplies across the West Midlands range from soft to hard depending on the source. 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

Measuring wall and floor areas and working out quantities with an allowance for cuts
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
Grouting, trims or mitred edges, and silicone at internal corners, the bath and the tray

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.

Is the water hard in Brierley Hill?

Can you tile over existing bathroom tiles?

Sometimes, but it is rarely the right choice. Tiling over tiles adds weight, brings the wall forward so trims and fittings no longer line up, and hides any loose tiles or water damage underneath. It is only worth considering where the old tiles are firmly bonded and the wall can take the extra load.
