Our installation process
Great feature tiling starts with careful planning and expert attention to detail. Here is what we do, in order, to bring your vision to life and create a finish that lasts.
01
Every great feature starts with careful planning. We work with you, your designer, builder or architect to refine layouts, patterns and details, ensuring your vision is achievable and brought to life with precision and craftsmanship.
02
We carefully inspect and prepare each surface to ensure it is clean, stable, level and ready for tiling. Proper preparation creates the foundation for a precise, durable and long-lasting finish.
03
Feature tiling requires precision and attention to detail. We carefully plan tile placement, grout lines and patterns, using premium adhesives and proven methods to create a beautifully aligned, striking and long-lasting finish.
04
We take care with every detail, including mitred edges, trims, corners, niches and transitions, to create a seamless, refined finish. Premium epoxy resin is also available for durable, beautifully finished mitred edges.
05
We use premium Mapei and Ardex grouts, with epoxy grout available for high-use areas requiring extra durability and stain resistance. Natural stone is sealed for protection, while professional silicone is applied to joints and corners for a clean, durable finish.
06
Once installation is complete, we thoroughly clean the surfaces, remove grout residue and leave the area tidy and ready for the next stage. We also provide care guidance to help your feature tiles look their best for years to come.
