Working in Huddersfield

In Huddersfield we cover HD1, HD2, HD3 and 3 more postcode districts; we also cover Elland, 3.3 miles away, and Brighouse.

Across a large town like Huddersfield, homes range from older terraces to newer estates; the survey tells us which pipework and floor we are dealing with. If you want a tiled shower floor in your Huddersfield bathroom, the tanking and drainage are planned before the tile is chosen. Tiling quotes in Huddersfield list the tile, the area and the preparation separately, so you can compare like for like.

Most of West Yorkshire is supplied with soft water. Soft water is kind to grout, so mid-tone and darker grouts stay looking fresh. 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

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.

Grout

Cement-based grout is standard. Epoxy grout resists stains and mould better and suits showers, but takes longer to apply and costs more.

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.
