Floor Tiler Nottingham


The first step before we start any floor tiling is to examine the current status of your floor and make sure it is viable to take floor tiling as it is. If it isn't then we'll need to take steps towards levelling your flooring which may also include seal the surface area to make sure that we can make achieve a fantastic floor tiling job. We will advise on any pre-installation requirements for your floor and once approved get to work on this aspect. In some instances the cement floor base may have good flatness but the loose dusty nature of the cement floor should be sealed with PVA or an acrylic bonding option to provide a better base. We would also look to do this prior to to other types of flow levelling such as screeding so we have an ideal base on which to fit floor tiles.

As experienced floor tilers in Nottingham we want to ensure your floor, once installed, will last for a very long time and that your floor tiles are not likely to crack or move due to a less than perfect tile fitting. Depending on the tiles you have chosen, some could easily last a lifetime, or indeed several lifetimes, before ever needing replacement and that is our aim.

Floor Tile Fitters Nottingham


As experiences floor tile fitters in Nottingham we know key steps involved in fitting floor tiles. Before laying the tiles, we prepare the surface properly by levelling it off as previously mentioned. Once we know we have a good surface on which to tile we will lay down the right level of adhesive before applying the tiles ensuring that if there is a pattern or a mix of tiles that they will follow the agreed design. Once the tiles have been laid down. They should not be walked on for at least 24 hours to allow the adhesive to cure properly. If you have a large are it is likely that we will work with you to agree to do it in stages, so that you can still function in that room for as much as possible. Once the tiles have had the time to  set in place we will grout between them ensuring any excess grout is wiped off with a damp sponge. You can walk in that room but be careful not to treat on the grout until that has dried out too. Before leaving we inspect our work and encourage you to do the same with us as customer satisfaction is our primary focus.

Frequently Asked Floor Tiling Questions

  • WHERE'S THE BEST PLACE TO START WHEN TILING A FLOOR?

    When tiling a floor usually best to start is in the centre of the room rather than at one of the walls, which may seem counterintuitive. However, this allows you to judge where any cuts need to be made and avoid having too many tiles that are slightly too small, which reduces waste and could save you some money if you can return unused tiles. We also pre-place your tiles around an object, such as a radiator or sink so that we can check they line up around these features.

  • WHAT ARE THE BEST FLOOR TILES FOR UNDERFLOOR HEATING?

    Almost any natural stone tile or ceramic tile will be one of the best floor surfaces for underfloor heating. Porcelain tiles are very good for use with underfloor heating and will need to be laid on a bed of insulation board, which can also act as an adhesive when fixing the tiles in place. An important part is ensuring the tile adhesive is suitable for the insulating board - which is something Nottingham Flooring is experienced in to ensure a great installation.
