We use specific sealants to protect the stone for a lifetime.Q: Can you tile over electric underfloor mats?A: Yes, we are specialists in all UFH systems. We use Pro-grid electric heating which has a lifetime guarantee, and we use resistance testers on the wires during the entire installation process to ensure safety.Q: What is tiling matting and why is it needed?A: Tiling matting, or a decoupling membrane (like Schluter-DITRA), neutralizes lateral movement in the subfloor. It is essential for preventing stress cracks in timber floors or new screeds.Q: Can you mitre cut tiles (Jolly edges)?A: Yes, we prefer "jolly" (mitered) edges for a high-end architectural finish. We fill the joint with colour-matched epoxy resin for a seamless look, avoiding the need for plastic trims.Q: What can you do about uneven floors?A: In older properties, this is common. We can use self-levelling compounds, but we also use lasers to determine the best 'optical' flat if the room isn't level.Q: Do you use epoxy grout?A: Yes, we specialize in using epoxy grouts (like Perflex and Gopoxy) which are stain-proof and highly durable, perfect for showers and high-traffic areas.Q: Can you install vein-matched porcelain?A: Yes, we can "dry-lay" tiles to ensure a natural flow of patterns across walls and floors. Please request this at the quote stage as we need to allow extra time for this detailed work.Q: Can you tile onto lath and plaster walls?A: We typically advise boarding over old lath and plaster to ensure a flat, safe, and weight-bearing surface for your new tiles.Q: What size floor tiles do you recommend for fewer grout lines?A: It depends on the room size. Often, a 1200mm tile results in significant waste if the room isn't large enough. We often find 800mm tiles offer a similar aesthetic with less waste. We can advise on the optimum size during a site measure.
