What this work involves
Choose tiles in relation to the room. Discuss cuts, corners, falls where needed and fittings. Large formats require a suitable substrate.
- Substrate preparation
- Format and pattern
- Joint width and colour
- Waterproofing where needed
- Corners and movement joints
Use the following design considerations when coordinating this service with a wider project. Agree which parts apply to your request.
Coordinate the internal floor, skirting and glazing threshold levels.
What the drawing needs to explain
Draw one section through the kitchen, glazing and terrace. Include finished floor levels, the roof edge and shading position; separate supplier sketches do not fully show these relationships.
How to review the result
At completion, walk from the cooking area to the terrace. Check the opening with the intended furniture in place and review the light with any shading closed.
Cost factors for this service
Format, pattern, cutting and detail work determine the labour involved.
Bring this to the discussion
Dimensions, chosen tiles, fitting positions and substrate photographs.
Questions about the work
Can large tiles work in a small room?
Yes, but the layout and cuts matter. Plan the distribution before installation to avoid awkward narrow strips.
