Local external tiling experts
Cost of external tiling
The cost of external tiling varies depending on several factors, including the type of tiles used, the size and complexity of the project, and labour rates in your area. Here’s a detailed breakdown of what influences the overall cost of external tiling:
- Tile Material:
- Porcelain Tiles: These are one of the most popular choices for outdoor tiling due to their durability and low water absorption. Porcelain tiles typically cost between £20 and £60 per square metre.
- Natural Stone: If you prefer a more natural, premium look, materials like slate, granite, or travertine are excellent options. However, they can be more expensive, ranging from £30 to £100 per square metre.
- Quarry Tiles: These are another durable, cost-effective option for outdoor floors, generally priced between £20 and £40 per square metre.
- Ceramic Tiles: Although not as common for outdoor use due to their higher water absorption, ceramic tiles can be used in covered or less exposed areas and usually cost between £15 and £40 per square metre.
- Preparation Work:
- External tiling projects may require additional groundwork to ensure a stable, level surface. Preparing the base, whether it’s laying a concrete slab, compacting gravel, or levelling an existing surface, can add £10 to £30 per square metre to the overall cost.
- If you’re replacing existing tiles, removing the old tiles and preparing the surface for new ones could add an extra £20 to £40 per square metre, depending on the complexity of the removal process.
- Labour Costs:
- Labour costs for professional tilers typically range from £30 to £60 per square metre. Complex patterns, intricate designs, or difficult-to-reach areas (like tiling on walls or steep slopes) may result in higher labour costs.
- Some tradespeople may charge by the day, with rates ranging from £150 to £300 per day, depending on experience and location. Larger projects requiring more time will naturally increase the overall labour cost.
What are the best tiles to use outdoors?
The best tiles for outdoor use are durable, weather-resistant, and non-slip. Popular options include porcelain, natural stone (like slate or granite), and quarry tiles. Porcelain tiles are a top choice due to their strength and low water absorption rate, making them ideal for external conditions.
How long does external tiling take?
The time required for external tiling depends on the size and complexity of the project. For a standard patio or external floor, tiling can take between 2 to 5 days. More intricate designs or larger areas might require additional time for preparation and finishing.
Other external tiling FAQs
What base do I need for outdoor tiles?
A stable, level base is essential for outdoor tiles. Concrete slabs or a compacted gravel base are commonly used to ensure durability and prevent shifting.
Can I tile an exterior wall?
Yes, exterior walls can be tiled using weather-resistant tiles and the right adhesive to withstand outdoor conditions.
What are the disadvantages of outdoor tiles?
Outdoor tiles can be slippery when wet and may require more maintenance than other surfaces, especially in harsh climates.
