A sharp splashback or a fully tiled kitchen, cut clean and grouted tight across Burntwood and Chasetown.
The layout is planned from the fixed points in the room, so cuts around sockets and at the ends of the run stay neat and even.
A heat-tolerant, easy-clean tile behind the cooker, with the grout sealed so cooking splashes wipe off.
Exposed tile ends get a trim or a factory-finished edge, so the splashback looks built in rather than stuck on.
The splashback sits at eye level, so it's the one job where wonky cuts really show. Around Burntwood we tile splashbacks, feature walls and full kitchen walls, metro, porcelain, mosaic and natural stone, cut neatly around every socket, switch, tap and the extractor, with even joints so the pattern runs straight.
Behind a hob and sink it has to work as hard as it looks: sealed at the worktop and around each opening so splashes and grease wipe off and nothing creeps behind the tiles. We'll help you pick the tile and the layout, brick-bond, stacked or herringbone, to match your units and worktop.
From a single run behind the hob to the whole kitchen across Burntwood, Chasetown and Chase Terrace, we protect your units, work tidy and clear up after, all for a fixed price agreed before we begin.
Kitchens in Burntwood run from compact estate galleys in Boney Hay to larger open-plan rooms in the newer houses, and the splashback should suit the room rather than a showroom photo. In a small kitchen a lighter, larger tile keeps it open; in a big one a longer run of metro or a patterned panel behind the hob gives it a focal point.
Whichever suits you. We can price the tiles in with the job, or fit something you have already chosen. Either way we will tell you before you buy whether the tile suits the surface it is going on - a heavy porcelain on a stud wall is a different fixing from a ceramic on blockwork.
Yes, and it is usually the right call. Stripping back lets us see the wall and level it properly. In the newer Burntwood housing the plasterboard behind old tiles often comes away with them, which is easy to make good but has to be allowed for.
Fully public-liability insured, and happy to give you references from recent Burntwood jobs before you book anything. Ask - we would rather you did.
Most splashbacks take a day to tile, with grouting the next morning once the adhesive has set. Taking old tiles off and making good the wall can add half a day.
It is possible if the old tiles are firm and flat, but it adds thickness at the sockets and along the edge of the worktop. Removing them usually gives a neater, longer-lasting finish.
Rarely. Faceplates may need longer screws to sit over the new tiles, and the tiles are cut neatly around the back boxes. Moving a socket is electrical work and would be arranged separately.
