Professional Tiling on Costa Blanca

When we strip old tiles, we regularly find problems that explain why the previous job failed. Tiles laid on a sand base with barely any cement. Adhesive applied only in the centre of each tile, leaving the edges hollow. Walls that were never plastered or levelled before tiling. These shortcuts are why tiles crack, grout fails, and water gets behind the surface.

We fix what’s underneath before anything new goes on top.

Every tiling job starts with proper surface preparation. Walls get plastered and levelled. Floors get a proper screed with guide beacons if needed. We use the right adhesive for the right surface — flexible adhesive for large-format tiles, pool-rated adhesive for wet areas, outdoor-rated for terraces. Tiles are laid with consistent spacing, properly levelled, and grouted with the correct product for the application.

It sounds basic, but you’d be surprised how often these fundamentals are skipped.

Outdoor tiling on Costa Blanca has specific challenges. Intense UV exposure, thermal cycling from hot days to cool nights, and occasional heavy rain. We use anti-slip rated tiles, frost-proof adhesive, and ensure proper drainage slopes so water runs off rather than pooling on the surface.

For pools, we always apply a full waterproofing membrane before tiling — because concrete alone won’t keep the water where it belongs.
