Good tiling lives or dies on the preparation. A sound, level substrate, the right primer and proper waterproofing behind wet areas are what make a finish last for years rather than fail within months, and that groundwork is where we take the most care.
Rem Tilers London is a hands-on team with close to two decades of tiling behind us. We work with ceramic, porcelain, natural stone, marble, slate, mosaic and large-format tiles, on walls and floors, for homeowners, landlords and businesses in Watford.
Every job begins with the surface. We check that walls and floors are sound and level, make good or overboard where needed, and prime them for the chosen adhesive. Behind showers, baths and wet rooms we apply a waterproof tanking membrane so moisture never reaches the structure. Tiles are dry-laid first so cuts fall evenly and patterns line up, then bedded in adhesive combed to the correct notch size and back-buttered where the tile or setting calls for it. Grout is worked fully into each joint and polished off, and movement joints and internal corners are finished with colour-matched, mould-resistant silicone. Whether it is a splashback, a full bathroom, a kitchen floor or a commercial space, the same method gives you a flat, watertight, hard-wearing result.
YEARS OF
EXPERIENCE
Because tiling is all we do, you get someone who sets a room out properly, cuts cleanly around sockets, pipes and awkward corners, and keeps grout lines straight and joints consistent. We match the adhesive and grout to each tile and substrate, seal natural stone so it does not stain, and take the time to get levels and falls right so floors drain and large tiles sit flat. You also get honest advice, a clear written price and a tidy site, with the finish checked over with you before we leave.
We retile bathrooms and en-suites all over Watford, from quick refreshes to full rip-outs. Wet areas are properly waterproofed, tiles are bedded onto a sound, primed surface and every joint is finished with mould-resistant grout, so your bathroom tiling stays watertight and easy to keep clean.
Whether it is a smart splashback or a full floor, our kitchen tiling keeps your Watford kitchen looking sharp and easy to wipe down. We cut tidily around sockets, taps and units and work happily with metro, mosaic and large-format porcelain.
From feature walls to full-height bathroom and utility walls, our wall tiling is set out carefully for even cuts and dead-straight grout lines, in ceramic, porcelain and mosaic tiles of any size, for homes right across Watford.
Patios, paths, porches and steps all benefit from proper outdoor tiling. We lay frost-proof, slip-resistant porcelain and stone on a solid base with the right drainage falls, so your Watford garden stays safe and smart through the winter.
We handle commercial tiling for Watford shops, offices, salons and other premises, working evenings or weekends where it suits, and fitting hard-wearing, slip-rated tiles that cope with constant footfall without holding up your business.
Marble and natural stone need a steady hand. Our marble tiling covers Carrara, Calacatta, travertine and similar stones, sealed against stains and laid so the veining runs cleanly across the room, for that bit of luxury in Watford homes.

A few common questions about how we tile and what to expect.
Yes. Behind baths, showers and wet rooms we apply a proper tanking membrane and seal the joints before tiling, so water cannot get into the wall or floor. It is the most important step in a bathroom, and the one most often skipped.
Yes. We use flexible adhesive and grout suited to underfloor heating and, where needed, a decoupling membrane, so the tiles cope with the floor warming and cooling without cracking or lifting.
Yes. Large-format tiles need a very flat, well-prepared base, the right notched trowel and back-buttering, and careful levelling so there is no lipping between tiles. We have the kit and the experience to lay them properly.
Sometimes. If the old tiles are firmly fixed and flat and the surface is sound, tiling over them with the right primer can save time and mess. We check first and tell you honestly whether it will last.
Often, yes. We can rake out and replace failed grout, lift and re-bed cracked or loose tiles, and do our best to match what is there. A neat repair is frequently cheaper than a full retile.
