Wall & Floor Tiling in Edenbridge
Wall and floor tiling for bathrooms, kitchens, cloakrooms and hallways, from metro tiles to large-format porcelain.
Tiles are expected to last for many years, so mistakes stay visible for a long time: uneven edges, cracked tiles, crooked lines and grout that fails in wet areas.
One Stop Build & Landscaping tiles walls and floors in kitchens, bathrooms, cloakrooms, utility rooms and hallways around Edenbridge, as standalone jobs or as part of wider refits.
Wall tiling
Kitchen splashbacks, bathroom walls and showers each have different needs. Wet areas need waterproofing behind tiles, and large tiles need very flat walls to avoid lippage. Metro and brick-style tiles suit traditional and modern rooms, while large-format porcelain gives a seamless look with fewer grout lines.
Floor tiling
| Tile type | Strengths | Considerations |
|---|---|---|
| Ceramic | Affordable, wide choice, easy to cut | Best for walls and light-traffic floors |
| Porcelain | Dense, hard-wearing, low water absorption | Harder to cut; large formats need flat substrates |
| Natural stone | Unique character | Usually needs sealing and gentler cleaning |
Floor tiles must be laid on a sound, stable base. Timber floors may need overboarding to limit movement, and concrete floors may need levelling or moisture checks. Slip resistance matters in bathrooms and entrances.
How tiling is carried out
- Remove old tiles and assess the surface underneath
- Prepare, board or level walls and floors
- Apply waterproofing to wet areas
- Set out the layout so cuts are balanced and features align
- Fix tiles with suitable adhesive, then grout and seal joints
- Silicone movement joints at corners and junctions
Cost and timing
Area, tile size and type, pattern complexity, preparation, waterproofing and removal of old tiles influence cost. Adhesive and grout need curing time before full use. For a quotation, send photos, measurements, your postcode and the tiles you have in mind.
