Bathroom Tiling in Gamlingay

Tiling across Gamlingay runs from snug old-cottage bathrooms to the larger spaces in the village's newer homes. Bathroom tiling isn't just about how it looks — it's the waterproof barrier between your wet areas and the walls and floors behind them. Get it wrong and moisture gets in, boards rot, and you end up stripping the lot out and starting again. We tile bathrooms properly — waterproof adhesive, flexible grout rated for wet environments, and movement joints where they're needed.

Tiling a period bathroom in an old post-fire cottage takes very different prep from a modern home's en-suite. We work with every type of tile — large-format porcelain, small mosaic sheets, natural stone, ceramic, and glass. If you've got tiles picked out, we'll fit them. If you haven't decided yet, we'll advise on what works for your bathroom, your budget, and the substrate you're tiling onto. Not every wall can take heavy stone tiles without prep — we'll tell you before we start, not halfway through.

Across Gamlingay we tile everything from compact en-suites in Everton terraces to large family bathrooms on The Cinques. Whether it's a single splashback behind the basin or a full floor-to-ceiling retile, we measure, cut, and grout to a standard that lasts. No lippage, no uneven spacing, no tiles working loose six months later.

From a small splashback to a full floor-to-ceiling retile, we leave a crisp, hard-wearing finish. The biggest tiling jobs we do across Gamlingay are full bathroom retiles for renovation projects, and these tend to be where prep matters most. We level uneven floors, brace stud walls where heavy floor tiles are going down, fit tile-backer board where lath-and-plaster won't take the load, and prime plasterboard properly before any adhesive goes on. The result is a tiled bathroom that still looks tight in twenty years — not one where the corners blow at the first temperature swing.

Tiling Services

Wall Tiling in Gamlingay

Wall Tiling

Full wall tiling, feature walls, half-height tiling, and splashbacks. We prep the substrate, apply waterproof adhesive, set the tiles with even spacing, and grout with flexible, mould-resistant grout. We handle cuts around windows, pipes, sockets, and fixtures.

Floor Tiling in Gamlingay

Floor Tiling

Bathroom floor tiles need to be non-slip, waterproof, and laid on a stable base. We level uneven floors, apply flexible adhesive for underfloor heating compatibility, and seal the edges properly. Porcelain, ceramic, stone, or vinyl — whatever suits your space.

Shower Surround Tiling in Gamlingay

Shower Surrounds

Tiling around showers and baths takes proper waterproofing. We use tanking membrane or waterproof backer board behind the tiles, flexible adhesive, and silicone-free grout joints where panels meet trays and baths. No water getting through.

Retiling and Strip-Out in Gamlingay

Retiling & Strip-Out

Old tiles coming off, walls prepped, new tiles going on. We remove existing tiles, repair or replace damaged plasterboard or cement board, skim or level the surface, and tile from a clean, flat base. The prep is what makes the finish.

Mosaic and Feature Tiles in Gamlingay

Mosaic & Feature Tiles

Mosaic sheets, patterned tiles, border strips, and accent pieces. We handle the fiddly stuff — cutting around curves, aligning patterns, and spacing small tiles evenly. Feature walls, niches, and shower recesses are where these really shine.

Underfloor Heating Compatible Tiling in Gamlingay

Underfloor Heating Compatible

Electric underfloor heating mats sit under the floor tiles and need flexible adhesive and decoupling membrane to handle thermal movement. We lay the heating mat, test it, apply the adhesive, and tile over it. Works with porcelain, ceramic, and stone. For installation of the heating system itself, see our central heating service.

Bathroom Tiling Questions

It depends on the area, tile type, and prep work needed. See our pricing for current rates per m² and typical project costs. We quote a fixed price after measuring up — no surprises.
Yes. Most of our customers buy their own tiles from wherever they like — we just fit them. If you want advice on what to buy, tile type, thickness, or how many to order (including waste), we're happy to help before you purchase.
Sometimes, if the existing tiles are firmly bonded and the wall can take the extra weight. But in most bathrooms, we recommend removing the old tiles and starting fresh. It gives a better finish, lets us check the substrate, and avoids problems with adhesion or thickness build-up around fixtures.
Job size, substrate condition, and tile type all matter. A simple shower surround is significantly quicker than a full bathroom with walls and floor. Large-format tiles cover ground faster but need more precise cutting. Mosaic and pattern work is the most labour-intensive. We always give a clear schedule before we start.
We use flexible, water-resistant grout rated for wet areas. For shower floors and areas with constant water exposure, we can step up to a higher-grade grout that resists discolouration better. We'll recommend the right type for each area of your bathroom.
Yes — tiles and grout alone are not fully waterproof. We use either tanking membrane painted onto the substrate or waterproof cement backer board behind all shower and bath surrounds. This is the barrier that actually stops water reaching the wall structure.
Yes. Electric underfloor heating mats sit under the tiles. We use flexible adhesive and decoupling membrane to handle the thermal expansion. The tiles need to be porcelain, ceramic, or stone — not vinyl. We test the heating mat before tiling over it. For installation of the heating system itself, see our central heating service.
