Floor Tiling
Kitchens, living areas and studio floors in Woodstock tiled on a level base, including tiling over sound concrete slabs in converted buildings.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Woodstock's older row houses are often small and awkward, which makes careful tiling even more important. Our tilers plan the layout so cuts are neat and the space feels bigger, so send us photos and measurements for a written quote.

Here is the tiling work we do in Woodstock houses, apartments and business spaces.
Kitchens, living areas and studio floors in Woodstock tiled on a level base, including tiling over sound concrete slabs in converted buildings.
Small Woodstock bathrooms retiled with a planned layout, and showers waterproofed before any tiles are laid.
Splashbacks in compact kitchens tiled neatly around sockets, windows and shelves to add colour without losing space.
Front stoeps, back yards and small courtyards tiled with hard-wearing, non-slip tiles that cope with wind-blown grit and rain.
Woodstock’s Victorian row houses tend to have narrow rooms, small bathrooms tucked into the back of the house and old floors that are rarely level. Some have suspended timber floors in the front rooms, and the back rooms are often later additions with their own slab. Getting a flat base before tiling is usually the biggest part of the job.
The converted warehouses and newer apartment blocks around Albert Road and Victoria Road are different. Here we are often tiling over concrete, or tiling bathrooms and kitchens in compact flats where every centimetre counts. Out front, the classic Woodstock stoep takes foot traffic straight from the street, so it needs tough tiles that do not get slippery when wet.
We remove old tiles or flooring, check the slab and level it where needed. On uneven old floors this step makes the difference between a neat finish and tiles that rock or crack.
We plan the tile layout so cuts fall in less visible places, waterproof the shower and walls, then tile and grout. In small rooms, larger tiles and fewer grout lines can make the space feel more open.
Front stoeps and back yards are tiled with outdoor tiles and laid to drain. Inside, we tile kitchen floors and splashbacks around existing cupboards.
We can supply tiles for your project or lay ones you have bought. If you have fallen for patterned or encaustic-style tiles to suit an older Woodstock house, send us the details first so we can check they suit the area you want to tile and allow for extra cutting.
Our team also does handyman services in Woodstock, painting in Woodstock, building and renovations in Woodstock and fireplace, braai and chimney services.
