What to know

Floor vs wall

Many tilers in Porthmadog do both — ask which they prefer and how long the room is out of use. Movement joints and waste percentages should be in the quote.

Wet rooms

Waterproofing (tanking) comes before tiles. Skipping it causes leaks that show up months later.

Supplying your own tiles

Common — confirm wastage percentage (often 10–15%) and who owns leftover boxes.
