Bathroom tiling in Rainham and Wennington. Walls and floors tiled properly, wet areas tanked before a tile goes up, grout and silicone finished clean.
Rainham is a mix - interwar stock toward South Hornchurch, older cottages out at Wennington, and newer building near the river. The bathrooms vary as much as the houses do, so the honest answer on a quote usually starts with getting the old tiles off and looking.
Shower and wet zones sealed with a proper tanking system first. It is the step nobody sees and the only thing standing between water and your joists and Rainham bathrooms vary as much as the houses do, so we look before quoting.
Old tiles off, walls made flat and primed. Tiles laid onto an uneven wall telegraph every hollow behind them which near the river is worth doing properly rather than hopefully.
Cuts planned so full tiles land where you look and the awkward cuts go where you do not - behind the door, under the bath so the awkward cuts go under the bath where nobody looks.
Grout worked in properly, silicone run in one clean bead at every change of plane. It is where a tiling job is judged and it is the detail that dates a bathroom fastest.

Always, and it is not optional on a shower or wet area. Tile adhesive and grout are not waterproof - the tanking behind them is. Anyone skipping it is leaving you a leak on a timer.
A standard Rainham bathroom is two to three days for walls and floor, plus a day either side if the old tiles have to come off and the walls need making good. We tell you which before we start.
Yes, and Elm Park, Upminster and across to Hornchurch. Rainham itself is a small patch, so we work the wider area rather than pretending otherwise.
