Barking runs from the old town and the Gascoigne estate out to Thames View, Upney and the new streets at Barking Riverside. Flats, terraces and brand-new builds, three completely different tiling jobs, and we do all three week in week out.
Barking gives a tiler three distinct kinds of work. There is the flats: the blocks around the Gascoigne and Thames View, plus a lot of privately let property, where the job is usually a tired bathroom turned round quickly and cleanly between tenants. Waterproofed properly behind the bath rather than tiled straight onto plasterboard and left to fail in a year. There is the older terraced and semi stock through Longbridge, Movers Lane and Rippleside, where bathrooms tend to be small, awkward and full of pipe boxing, and the whole job is in the setting out: start the run in the middle so the cuts fall evenly, keep the boxing tiled in properly instead of trimmed round, and the room reads twice the size. Then there is Barking Riverside, where the walls are flat and true and the work is a different discipline again: large-format porcelain, tight tolerances, and a developer's spec to match. Whichever yours is, the same things decide whether it looks right in ten years: a sound flat substrate, the run set out before a single tile goes up, proper waterproofing where water actually goes, and cuts landing where nobody looks. Fixed price for the room, old tiles and rubble taken away, and the place left clean.
Tired bathrooms stripped and retiled between tenancies, waterproofed properly behind the bath rather than tiled onto bare plasterboard and left to fail in a year.
Small Barking bathrooms set out from the centre so the cuts fall evenly, with the pipe boxing tiled in properly instead of trimmed round.
Bathroom Tiling in Barking →Splashbacks and full walls cut cleanly around sockets and switches, trims mitred rather than butted.
Kitchen Splashbacks in Barking →Kitchens, halls and utilities laid on a properly prepared floor so the lines carry through the doorways instead of jumping at every threshold.
Floor Tiling in Barking →Large-format porcelain on the flat true walls at Barking Riverside, to a developer's tolerances and finished to match.
Tiling sound but the finish gone? Old grout raked out, fresh grout in, silicone renewed: a fraction of the cost of starting again.
Regrouting & Resealing in Barking →Bad tiling shows for twenty years and from every angle: grout lines that wander, a cut that dies in a corner, a wall nobody set out properly before they started. The prep is the job: a flat sound wall, the run set out from the middle, and the cuts landing where nobody looks.
Public-liability insured, with references from regular customers you can check first.
The run is planned from the centre so cuts fall evenly and nothing awkward lands beside the door.
Stripping out, rubble and disposal are in the price. No rubble bags left in the hall for a fortnight.
One price for the room, agreed before we start. No day-rate creep and no "the wall was worse than we thought".
Send a photo of the room on WhatsApp with rough measurements, and the tile you like, if you have already picked one.
A fixed written price for the room: adhesive, grout, trims, cuts and taking the old tiles away, all in.
Set out properly, tiled, grouted and sealed, old tiles and rubble taken away, and the room left clean rather than dusty.
Bathrooms, kitchens and floors tiled across Barking and nearby.
A lot of our work is exactly that. We turn a bathroom round quickly and cleanly between tenancies, and we will be straight with you about what needs doing and what does not: a full retile is not always the answer.
All of Barking and nearby: Gascoigne, Thames View, Longbridge, Movers Lane, Rippleside, Upney, Becontree, Creekmouth and out to Barking Riverside and Dagenham.
Yes. The newer flats have flat, true walls and usually want large-format porcelain, which is a different discipline, back-buttering, a levelling system and tight tolerances. We work to the developer's spec where there is one.
Stripping out, rubble and disposal are all in the price. Nothing is left in the hall or the front garden.
Yes, fully public-liability insured, and happy to show you finished rooms nearby before you commit to anything.
