Bathroom tiling
straight, level and waterproof.

Tiling is where a bathroom lives or dies. We prepare and tank properly, set out so the cuts are balanced, use a levelling system on large-format tiles and finish with sealed, colour-matched grout and silicone — as part of a full renovation or as a standalone job.

The honest answer

What bathroom tiling
really costs in London.

Bathroom tiling labour in London costs between £45 and £110 per m². Standard 300×600 porcelain on walls sits at the lower end; large-format slabs, herringbone patterns, metro tiles and mosaics at the top because of the setting-out and cutting time. A typical London bathroom retile — walls and floor, 20–30m² — is £1,800–£3,500 + VAT in labour.

The cost drivers are the tile size and pattern, the amount of cutting (small bathrooms have proportionally more), the preparation (old tiles off, walls re-boarded or skimmed, floors overlaid, shower areas tanked), and details like niches, mitred external corners and trims. Tiles are a separate line — we supply at trade prices or fit yours.

Common questions

Your questions
answered.

Labour is £45–£65 per m² + VAT for standard porcelain or ceramic, £65–£95 per m² for large-format and patterned tiles, and £75–£110 per m² for mosaic, metro and natural stone. A typical London bathroom of 20–30m² of walls and floor costs £1,800–£3,500 + VAT in labour. Tiles and materials are extra.
It's possible on sound, well-bonded tiles, but we don't recommend it — it adds thickness, hides problems and usually fails at the edges. We remove old tiles, repair the substrate and start from a proper base.
Yes — every shower and wet area is tanked with a waterproof membrane before tiling. Tiles and grout are not waterproof on their own, and untanked showers are the most common cause of leaks into flats below.
They need a perfectly flat wall or floor, a levelling system on every tile to avoid lippage, two people to handle, and more precise cutting. The result — fewer grout lines — is worth it, but it takes longer.
We can source tiles at trade prices from Topps, CTD, Mandarin Stone, Fired Earth, Bert & May and others, or fit tiles you've bought. Either way the tiles are a separate line so the labour is transparent. We'll tell you how much to order including waste.
Metro tiles are classic and forgiving but have a lot of grout to keep clean and take longer to fit. Large-format tiles are modern, quicker to clean and make small bathrooms feel bigger. Many London bathrooms combine both.
A standard bathroom retile takes 3–5 days including preparation and grouting. Large-format or patterned tiling takes 5–7 days. Grout needs 24 hours before use and silicone 24–48 hours.
Yes — most of our tiling is within full bathroom renovations, which we manage end to end with our own plumbers and electricians. Standalone tiling is welcome too.
