Useful Tiling Information

At Were Tiling we are passionate about tiling.  And we really do mean that.

We are frequently retraining and studying not just mosaic pattern tiling but the entire history of tiling.  We do it so that we can become better at what we do and because by retraining and learning about everything and anything to do with tiling, we will be better placed to help preserve some of the most historic tiling across Scotland.  From historic residential homes in Glasgow to famous Hotels in Edinburgh, there are not many specialist tiler who can properly handle and preserve these truly stunning mosaic details.  But we are one of them, and we feel that we are helping to preserve a bit of the great history of Scottish Interior Design by doing this.

There are so many areas of tiling though that it is difficult to know where to begin.  And that is what this page of our website is for.  Here you can find links to some useful pages of info ranging from tile size to tile material.  And if what you are looking for is not here, then simply get in touch.  You will always find a friendly voice at the other end of the line.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What Our Customers Say

Brian from Newcastle

We were replacing a carpet in our hall and discovered the original Victorian tiling was still there. Andrew came to our home, looked at the tiling and gave us a quote with no hassle. His attention to detail and careful and methodical approach are clear in the end results. We are so delighted with the work that he has done. We never thought about having a tiled hallway but we are more than delighted with the results and it has increased the value of our home considerably.

Andy from Glasgow

We were looking for our Storm Door area and hallway to have a matching contemporary geometric tile design to them. We want a modern take that worked with our period Victorian home. Andrew was one of three tilers we call. He was the only one who took any measurements and really looked at the set up that we wanted. We went Were because they seemed to know what they were talking about and we were impressed with their detailed quote breakdown. It meant we knew exactly what to expect. And the end result - we could not be more happy with the end results. Our hallway looks better than ever.
