Working in Wolverhampton

As well as Wolverhampton itself (WV1, WV2, WV3 and 3 more postcode districts), we survey in Willenhall, Tipton and Wednesbury.

Wolverhampton is a big place with every kind of home, from terraces to flats to new builds, so we never price from a photo alone. Tiling quotes in Wolverhampton list the tile, the area and the preparation separately, so you can compare like for like. Whatever the age of your Wolverhampton home, large-format tiles need flat walls, so the survey checks how much preparation they will take.

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

Grouting, trims or mitred edges, and silicone at internal corners, the bath and the tray
Sealing natural stone and cleaning off grout haze before handover
Tanking the shower area and the walls around the bath with a waterproof membrane or liquid system
Setting out so cuts are even and joints line up with niches, windows and edges

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.

Tile size

Large-format tiles mean fewer grout lines but need flat walls and more preparation. Small tiles and mosaics follow uneven surfaces and grip better underfoot.

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.
