Marble tiling in London
TLS Tiling fits marble tiling across London and around 20 miles beyond — bathroom walls and floors, hallways and feature areas. Marble is soft and shows every imperfection, so it's dry-laid for vein direction, fixed with full coverage and grouted with a non-staining grout. We fit tiles you supply and carry out tiling only.
What's included
- Flat, primed substrate preparation for a lippage-free finish
- Dry-laying to plan veining and shade
- Full-coverage fixing with white adhesive where required
- Mitred edges and trims for corners and reveals
- Sealing before grouting where the marble needs protection
What's not included
- Supplying or sourcing marble — you supply it
- Polishing, honing or restoring existing marble
- Plumbing, electrics or sanitaryware
We are a tiling-only specialist and fit the tiles you supply.

Questions
Marble tiling — your questions answered
Does marble stain easily?
It's porous, so sealing and prompt cleaning of spills matter. We seal before grouting where recommended.
Can you mitre marble corners?
Yes, mitred external corners give a cleaner look than trims where the marble is thick enough.
Is marble suitable for a shower?
Yes, when the area is properly tanked and the marble is sealed appropriately.
Can veins be matched across tiles?
Where the tiles allow it, we dry-lay to run veins consistently or book-match feature areas.
What adhesive is used for marble?
Usually a white, rapid-set adhesive so nothing shows through lighter marble.
Can marble go on floors?
Yes, with the right substrate preparation. Honed finishes are less slippery than polished.
Will you cut marble on site?
Yes, wet-cut with the correct blades to avoid chipping the edges.
Does marble need sealing again later?
Periodically, yes — follow the sealer manufacturer's guidance for re-application.
Do you supply the tiles?
No — TLS Tiling fits the tiles you supply. You choose and buy your tiles, and we install them with care.
Do you do full bathroom installations?
No. We are a tiling-only specialist, so no plumbing, electrics or sanitaryware fitting. We handle the tiling side of the job.
