TYPES OF TILES AND THEIR USES

Ceramic Tiles

Made from natural clay and fired at high temperatures. Available in a wide variety of colors, patterns, and finishes. Durable and easy to maintain, suitable for both walls and floors.

Porcelain Tiles

A type of ceramic tile made from denser clay and fired at higher temperatures. More durable, water-resistant, and less porous than regular ceramic tiles. Ideal for high-traffic areas and outdoor use.

Mosaic Tiles

Small, decorative tiles made from materials like glass, ceramic, or stone, often arranged in patterns. They are used for backsplashes, showers, swimming pools, and accent pieces on walls.

Granite

A natural stone formed from cooled magma, known for its strength and durability. Available in a variety of colors and patterns, often with a polished finish. Ideal for countertops, floors, and exterior applications.

Marble

A natural stone formed from metamorphosed limestone, known for its veined patterns. Offers a luxurious and elegant appearance. Requires regular sealing and maintenance, suitable for floors, walls, and countertops.

Travertine

A type of limestone formed in hot springs, characterized by its porous surface. Offers a rustic look with earthy tones. Often used for floors, walls, and outdoor paving, but needs sealing.

Slate

A fine-grained metamorphic rock known for its layered texture and dark, rich colours. Highly durable and slip-resistant. Suitable for floors, walls, and roofing.

Pebbles

Small, rounded stones often mounted on a mesh backing. Provide a natural, textured look and feel. Ideal for shower floors, accent walls, and outdoor pathways.

PRE – TILING

Surface Preparation Services

Screeding and Leveling

Screeding and leveling are essential steps in preparing a surface for tiling.

Screeding is the process of applying a layer of material, typically sand and cement, to create a smooth and level surface. This is particularly important for floor installations.

Leveling ensures that the surface is perfectly flat, with no high or low spots, to prevent issues like tile lippage or uneven surfaces. By carefully screeding and leveling the surface, you create a solid, flat foundation that ensures the tiles will adhere properly and look professional.

Underfloor Heating

Underfloor heating installation refers to the process of installing a heating system beneath the floor surface to provide radiant heat. This method is used to evenly distribute warmth throughout a room, creating a comfortable living environment. There are two main types of underfloor heating systems: electric and hydronic (water-based). We install the Electric Underfloor Heating only.

Electric Underfloor Heating installation:

Heating elements such as cables or mats are laid directly under the floor covering.

The system is connected to a thermostat (by an electrician), to regulate the temperature.

This type of heating system ist most suitable for smaller areas or retrofitting into existing floors, as it is generally easier and quicker to install.

Waterproofing

Waterproofing involves applying materials and methods to create a barrier that prevents water from passing through surfaces and entering underlying structures. This is particularly crucial in wet areas to protect against water damage. Waterproofing can include:

Applying Waterproof Membranes that form a continuous barrier on surfaces.
Using silicone or other waterproof sealants to seal joints, edges, and seams where water could penetrate.
Applying special paints or coatings designed to repel water.
Ensuring adequate drainage systems are in place to channel water away from critical areas.

Sealing

Sealing involves applying products that protect surfaces from water, stains, and other contaminants. Sealing is often used for materials like tiles, grout, stone, and concrete to enhance their durability and appearance. Sealing can include:

Grout Sealers: Applying sealant to grout lines to prevent water, dirt, and stains from penetrating.
Tile Sealers: Coating tiles to protect against moisture and stains, especially porous tiles like natural stone.
Stone Sealers: Applying sealant to natural stone surfaces to prevent water absorption and staining.
Joint Sealants: Using flexible sealants to fill gaps and joints, providing a watertight seal.

Proper waterproofing and sealing are essential steps in the construction and maintenance of wet areas to ensure longevity and safety.
