Working in Redditch

We work right across Redditch — B96, B97 and B98 — and in neighbouring Bromsgrove and Shirley.

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

Most of Worcestershire has moderately hard water. 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

Tanking the shower area and the walls around the bath with a waterproof membrane or liquid system
Sealing natural stone and cleaning off grout haze before handover
Floor preparation: overlaying timber floors with ply or backer board, or levelling a screed
Setting out so cuts are even and joints line up with niches, windows and edges

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.

Natural stone

Marble, limestone and travertine need sealing and gentle cleaners, and can mark. Stone-effect porcelain gives a similar look without the upkeep.

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.

Do you cover B96 in Redditch?

Yes. We cover all of Redditch, including B96, B97 and B98, and nearby Bromsgrove, Shirley and Droitwich. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Do I need to tank a bathroom before tiling?

The shower area should always be tanked, because tiles and grout are not waterproof on their own. Around a bath with a shower over it, tanking the walls to above the shower head is sensible. A wet room needs the whole floor and the lower walls tanked.
