9 kitchen and hallway lime stone floor tiling
Posted 1 week ago
Job location: DT11One of the only tilers I have used that can work to a time scale. Due to delays on our side, Karl still managed to re book us in 2 weeks later. Karl is not the cheapest but he is one of the best. Communication is everything when dealing with good tradespeople. Due to our delay, Karl worked extra hours in the evenings to enable us to maintain our kitchen delivery date. Overall Not cheap Good communication Good professional work Good tiling skills Came to do a job he was getting paid to do and got on with it. Well done Karl see you on the next project .4.33 Fireplace tiling

Job location: BH9Carl was able to fit us in around jobs which was good as we were keen to get the job done in time for our log burner installation. He quickly installed the tiles and said he would come back to do the grouting . We paid him the money in good faith that he’d return to finish the job. We heard nothing back from him - my partner messaged as did I but we were ghosted . We paid for the whole job but had to do the grouting and finishing ourselves . Also the spacers that he put in became heavily lodged and we had a nightmare trying to get them out which resulted in some of the tiles being chipped .10 Kitchen floor levelling and tiling

Brilliant service. Quoted remotely due to distance but was very helpful. We started off with a patchwork floor with old plastic tiles underneath and patches of exposed concrete. Ended up both priming and latexing it, then tiling and grouting. The work took 1.5 days and ended with a brilliant finish. Decent price for the work completed as well. Now all that's left to do is the mastic seal round the edges. Will definitely have Carl back when we need other bits tiled later on, really happy with his work 👍🏻Verified reviewerJob location: BH2010 Ceramic Tiling Kitchen Splashback

Carl picked up this job at the last minute for me after another had let me down. New kitchen splashback tiled beautifully, start to finish in 1 day. Carl is friendly & courteous, really good clear comms prior to starting the job, arrived exactly when he said he would and left the work area clean and tidy when he was finished. Really fantastic work, highly recommended.Verified reviewerJob location: BH1210 Bathroom Tiling

Platinum Ceramics took a small, dated bathroom and turned it into a palace. Carl was efficient, friendly and worked really hard to get the finish exactly right, in a VERY confined space. Would 100% recommend.Verified reviewerJob location: BH1010 Carl carried out tiling for us in 3 bathrooms.

The works were completed to an excellent standard in all 3 bathrooms. Carl left everything in a clean and tidy state. I would highly recommend Platinum Ceramics and would certainly use them again.Verified reviewerJob location: BH24
