What a tiler does
A tiler checks the surface is flat, plans where the cuts fall, fixes tiles with adhesive and then grouts and seals. Poor preparation is the main cause of cracks and loose tiles.
Jobs people often ask tilers to do:
- Tiling a bathroom or shower room
- Fitting a kitchen splashback
- Tiling a hallway or kitchen floor
- Wet room waterproofing and tiling
- Laying outdoor patio tiles
Before you book a tiler
- In a shower or wet room the surface needs proper waterproofing (tanking) before tiles go on. Ask how it will be done.
- Order about ten per cent extra tiles for cuts and breakages, and keep a few spares for later repairs.
- 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.
