Case one
The Victorian terrace
Nottingham’s terraces are beautiful, and not one of their walls is straight. A refit that lasts starts by accepting that — then building a true room inside an untrue shell.
- Tanking behind the tile. The whole wet area is waterproofed before a single tile goes on. You’ll never see it — it’s why the wall behind your shower stays dry.
- Falls set true. Tray and floor are checked with the level, so water goes to the drain, not the corner.
- Setting out from the centre. Tiles are measured so the cuts land equal at both edges — the difference you can’t name but always notice.
