Our Tiling Services in Swansea
Bathroom Tiling
We create fully waterproof bathrooms that meet British Standards. Our tiles are slip-resistant and rated R10-R11.
Services include complete wetrooms, en-suite upgrades, and professional tanking membranes. We apply these to all wet areas before tiling.
Swansea-specific expertise: Victorian terraced homes in Uplands and Brynmill need extra waterproofing. This is due to older layouts and poor ventilation.
Looking for bathroom tilers near me? Modern flat owners near Swansea Marina favour large-format porcelain with textured anti-slip finishes.
Kitchen Tiling
We tile kitchen splashbacks and full floors. We use flexible, waterproof adhesives and anti-mould grout.
Style options include classic metro tiles, wood-effect porcelain, bold patterned backsplashes, and easy-clean surfaces.
For floors, we use tiles with PEI 3+ ratings. These handle regular footfall.
Popular with Swansea families: Open-plan living is common in SA1's regenerated areas. Designer tiling creates a practical focal point.
Floor Tiling
We install complete hallway, lounge, conservatory, and utility room floors. Services include subfloor preparation, decoupling membrane installation, and underfloor heating compatibility.
We use high-quality porcelain, ceramic, and mosaic. All have PEI 3-4 wear ratings for high-traffic areas.
What Swansea homeowners choose: Family homes in Sketty and Gorseinon choose durable porcelain for busy areas. Homeowners near the Gower Peninsula often select frost-resistant outdoor tiles for patios.
