Working in Sutton Coldfield
We cover every part of Sutton Coldfield, including B72, B73 and B75, and nearby Washwood Heath (4.6 miles) and Aldridge (5 miles).
Sutton Coldfield has a wide mix of house ages, so the survey is where we spot old lead pipework, weak joists or a tight soil stack. For Sutton Coldfield flats, we check the lease and the floor build-up before laying hard tiles on a timber floor. We measure tiled areas in Sutton Coldfield bathrooms on site, so the quote is based on real square metres.
Hardness differs from one part of the West Midlands to the next. 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
- Fixing with an adhesive suited to the tile and the surface, with levelling clips for large tiles
- Setting out so cuts are even and joints line up with niches, windows and edges
- Measuring wall and floor areas and working out quantities with an allowance for cuts
- Checking walls for flatness and strength, and boarding with cement-based backer board where needed
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.
