  • You get a professional tiler, like this one- http://www.ascottiling.co.uk/

    The tiler will quote you for fixing your tiles and will normally supply the adhesive as he won't want to use any old adhesive.

    Tilers can vary a lot in price depending on where you live.

    thanku for that, do they cut the tiles to shape as well or expect us to have that done
  • They will cut and fix all the tiles for you.

    Normally you buy the tiles of your choice then you get a few professional tilers around to give prices for fitting them.

    They will quote you for full installation of the tiles so all cutting and fixing will be in the price.

    thankyou very much is this the same for laminate flooring as well, if we buy the amount needed then the same kind of process, sorry know nothing about how to go about these things lol
  • yes, but often it is best to ring around the tilers and joiners as they might get a trade discount and so get the materials cheaper for you.

    If not you may find that they come and give you a quote and then say " I could have got that much cheaper for you".
