Floor and Wall Tiling for Thornhill homes and businesses
Floor and wall tiling demands precision from substrate preparation right through to the final grout finish. Whether it is a bathroom, kitchen, wet room or hallway, every tiling job begins with a properly prepared base. Ricky levels surfaces, treats substrate issues, installs tanking or waterproofing where needed for wet areas, and manages cuts and corners so tiles sit level and true. Tile choice, grout colour and sealant finish are all discussed to match the space and how it will wear. The work is finished neatly, with silicone seals in the right places and a grout that handles daily moisture and use. In Thornhill, that means preparing substrates and laying floor and wall tiles across a building stock of the planned village's wide main street of sandstone houses near the Drumlanrig estate. Ricky matches the materials and method to the property rather than working to a single template, so the finish suits both the age of the building and the way the space is used day to day.
