Challenges Faced

  • Uneven Substrate & Wall Prep
    The original wall surfaces were irregular and needed proper preparation. We applied adhesive leveling coats and reboarded areas to provide a flat, plumb surface ideal for patterned tiling.
  • Pattern Alignment
    The detailed encaustic-style tile pattern required absolute precision. Misalignment, especially around corners, would disrupt the flow and visual appeal.
  • Small Shower Recess
    The narrow shower enclosure meant tile layout had to be carefully planned to minimise waste and maintain full pattern continuity.

Our Tiling Solutions

  • Wall & Floor Tiling with Pattern Continuity
    We installed bold porcelain tiles with a traditional pattern, ensuring a seamless design across walls and floors—even in tight spaces.
  • Waterproofing and Surface Sealing
    We applied a full tanking system before tiling to guarantee moisture protection behind the shower and basin areas.
  • Clean Installation Around Fixtures
    Our team carefully tiled around sanitaryware, radiator brackets, and pipes, using fine cuts for a flawless finish.
  • Contrasting Grout for Visual Impact
    A soft grey grout was used to complement the pattern and enhance ease of maintenance.

Materials Used

  • Patterned porcelain floor and wall tiles (encaustic style)
  • Flexible tile adhesive suitable for wet areas
  • Waterproof tanking membrane system
  • Tile spacers and trim for edge protection

Project Highlights

  • Pattern-matched floor and shower walls
  • Bright, fresh look with a heritage-inspired feel
  • Durable and low-maintenance surfaces
  • Clean edge finishing and precision cuts
