Local insights
Local facts and conditions that influence offers in Edinburgh.
Across Edinburgh homes, we support your tiling project with suitable businesses from the Tiler field. Edinburgh offers many different residential settings and building types. Districts such as Bruntsfield, Leith, Morningside, New Town, Old Town show how different local requirements can be. That affects planning, appointment choice, and the right solution, especially where older buildings and new construction sit close together.
In mixed urban areas, older buildings, post-war housing, and new projects often meet. That influences planning, effort, and often coordination with property managers, residents, or landlords. Many projects also need clear agreements on access, times, and site logistics. With local businesses from the Tiler field, you get solutions that fit Edinburgh, without detours or open questions.

Planning, costs and process
If you are planning tiling, tile installation or a bathroom, kitchen or floor refresh, the useful question is not just the headline quote. The right result depends on the existing property, measurements, materials, Building Regulations, grants, trade sequencing, lead times and a clear scope of work. This guide helps you brief Tilers, plumbers and flooring fitters in Edinburgh and compare quotes for Tiling, tile installation and a well-run project.
Tiling depends on substrate, tile format, layout, waterproofing, falls, cuts, trims and grout. Bathrooms, showers, kitchens, floors and outdoor areas all need different preparation.
Good Tilers ask about tile size, surface condition, tanking, underfloor heating, movement joints and where cuts should land. Large-format tiles demand flatter walls and floors.
Process
From idea to result without detours. We cut through unclear quotes and frustrating waiting around. With beeBAAHM you get full transparency, digital organisation, and direct access to local tradespeople who truly know their craft.
FAQ
Short answers about planning, quotes and local businesses for tiling in Edinburgh.
Tile installation may include removal, backer boards, levelling, tanking, decoupling mat, adhesive, grout, trims, silicone, drilling and sealing. Wet rooms and outdoor areas are more technical than splashbacks.
Quotes should separate substrate prep, waterproofing, tile setting, grout, silicone, trims and waste. A square-metre price without prep detail is incomplete.
UK tiling often ranges from GBP 50 to GBP 120 per m2, while bathrooms, large-format tiles or complex patterns can reach GBP 80 to GBP 180 per m2 or more. Prep, tanking and trims add cost.
Tile size, layout, cuts, levelling, waterproofing, grout choice and access explain quote differences. Cheap tiling over a poor substrate rarely lasts.
The process runs from layout and substrate check to prep, waterproofing, setting out, adhesive, tiling, grouting, silicone and cleaning. Small splashbacks may take a day; bathrooms take several days.
Drying time matters. Showers should not be used until waterproofing, adhesive, grout and silicone have cured properly.
Porcelain is durable, ceramic is common for walls, natural stone needs specialist adhesive and sealing, and mosaic helps with falls. Slip resistance and frost resistance matter in the right places.
Grout and silicone colour change the look and maintenance. Large tiles reduce grout lines but increase installation precision.
Tiling must be sequenced with plumbing, electrics, plastering and flooring. Materials should be on site before the tiler is booked.
Do not rush tanking or drying times. Delays are cheaper than leaks, cracked tiles or failed grout.
Common mistakes are no tanking, wrong adhesive, poor falls, hollow tiles, lippage and unsuitable outdoor tiles. Silicone is a maintenance joint, not waterproofing.
Use checklists and the customer guide to compare technical details. In showers and wet rooms, waterproofing quality matters more than tile price.
