Bathroom Tiling Only Service in Trentham
Specialist wall and floor tiling — including large-format and stone.
Some Trentham jobs only need a tiler — a homeowner who's doing the rest, a builder running a refurb, or a landlord refreshing a tired suite. We take tiling-only work and price it as a separate trade.
We don't subsidise tiling-only quotes against full-suite installs. The quote is the quote.
Bathroom & Wet-Zone Tiling in Trentham isn't a one-template job — every house we walk into reveals something different.
Bathroom Tiling Only FAQs — Trentham
- Do you take tiling-only jobs in Trentham?
- Yes — for homeowners, builders and landlords. We quote per square metre with a separate prep allowance for substrate work where needed.
- Do you supply the tiles or just fit?
- Either. We can supply at trade rates from local merchants in Trentham, or fit a client-supplied range with no markup difference.
- What about tanking before tiling?
- Always included in shower zones — liquid membrane on walls, floor lip and tray upstand. Non-negotiable on every Trentham bathroom we tile.
- How long does bathroom tiling take?
- A standard Trentham bathroom is 3–5 days for walls and floor, including tanking cure and grout/silicone time.
- How quickly can you start a job in Trentham?
- Lead time is usually two to five weeks from a confirmed quote, depending on the spec and our current schedule across the Staffordshire side.
- Do you tile over existing tiles in Trentham?
- Only where the substrate is sound — usually we strip back to plaster or board so the new tiles bed properly and we can tank wet zones first.
