I was first introduced to tiling back in 1998. Working for a tiling company and along side an experienced tiler learning the basics and doing all the tedious jobs. Yep, all the stuff to instantly put you off wanting to be a tiler. To be honest I was sick of grouting after a month! However, when I started to actually put tiles on the wall, it was only then I started to appreciate how the grouting finished the job, and this in its self is a skill. I continued to work for a tiling company for 6 years on all sorts of projects, gaining different skills with different forms of tiling. Working on construction sites, new housing, commercial sites, hotels, schools, hospitals, and private houses. After 6 years I was asked privately if I would tile 6 big detached houses, I took this opportunity to go self-employed which I did and I’ve never looked back. Over time I’ve build up a good reputation for my work and reliability. This in turn has resulted in me tiling for some high profile people in London, Surry, Sussex and Kent. As ageing always catches up with us all, I decides to move from the fast pace of life which I had in Kent to a much slower one in Suffolk a couple of years ago.
