About Hersham
Hersham is a village just south of Walton-on-Thames in Elmbridge, built around its village green. Most homes here are a short drive from the neighbouring towns, so it is normal to ask tradespeople from Walton, Esher or Cobham as well.
Older houses often have uneven walls and floors. Ask how the tiler will level them.

What a tiler does
Tilers cut tiles to fit around pipes, corners and edges, and keep the lines straight across a whole room.
Jobs people often ask tilers to do:
- Fitting a kitchen splashback
- Wet room waterproofing and tiling
- Tiling over underfloor heating
- Laying outdoor patio tiles
- Re-grouting and resealing
Before you book a tiler
- Large porcelain tiles need a very flat surface. Ask about levelling and the right adhesive.
- Corners and the joint where the wall meets the bath should be flexible sealant, not hard grout.
- If you have underfloor heating, tell the tiler. The adhesive and the heating up process matter.
- Ask who removes old tiles, and what is behind them. Old walls sometimes need repair first.
