Wall and floor tiling

What they do:

Wall and Floor Tilers lay tiles accurately and achieve a high-quality finish using a variety of materials in residential, commercial, and public projects. They work with ceramic tiles, mosaics, and natural stone, and in a wide range of environments: walls, floors, and staircases in houses, offices, gardens, factories, public buildings, and places of worship.

They work both indoors and outdoors, following designs precisely, preparing surfaces, laying tiles according to the required pattern, and grouting to a professional standard. Some tilers specialize in artistic work, such as the complex designs often found in swimming pools.

Key skills:

• Wall and floor tile installation
• Surface preparation
• Safe use of tools and professional equipment
• Reading and following design plans
• Accuracy, craftsmanship, and creativity
• Understanding of materials (ceramics, mosaic, natural stone)
