DISCOVER TILING
ELEGANCE WITHIN CERAMICS
It is unlikely that Victorian builders who laid thousands of floors between the 1860s and 1920 gave much thought to what would have happened to their work by the 21st century.
I don’t believe they could have predicted that their floors would survive 150 years of wear and tear, let alone have become a desired feature in the homes of people across the UK.
1837-1901
VICTORIA
Tiling
/ˈtʌɪlɪŋ/
noun
a way of arranging identical plane shapes so that they completely cover an area without overlapping.
AT THE
THE
START OF
VICTORIAN
ERA,
INFO
Geometric tiled floors were only seen in churches, public buildings and the houses of the wealthy, but by 1890, these beautiful floors had become an essential feature in even ordinary Victorian houses.
By the 1960s, most of these original floors, now seen as old-fashioned and dated in their style, were covered over. They remained largely unseen for several decades until now, when once again their beauty, durability and style is appreciated.
HOW ITS
MADE
WHAT I DO
MODERN
VICTORIAN
Thanks to modern manufacturers of geometric floor tiles, it is possible to lay an authentic-looking Victorian tiled floor. There is almost an infinite number of patterns and colours available, with many of my clients choosing modern hues such as greys and blues to create tiled floors with a contemporary feel.
INTERIOR RESTORATION
It is possible to restore Victorian geometric tiled floors that are faded, filthy, covered in cement and paint, crumbling, and even those with large channels dug through them to put in pipes for central heating. Each floor needs to be assessed on a case by case basis, but before you write your floor off, let me take a look at it.
EXTERIOR PATHS
Often in poor condition due to years of exposure to the elements, but just like interior floors, there is a lot that can be done to restore and re-lay them. An exterior pathway is worth saving, if possible, as it upgrades the appearance of the property and can add to your property’s value.
