Tiling & Grouting FAQs
How can I find a good tiler near me?
The quickest and easiest way is through Hey Alfie. Alfie finds you trusted local tilers available in your area right now. No more scrolling through directories, chasing quotes, or hoping someone turns up. Just tell Alfie what you need and get your tiling job done properly.
Why should I use Hey Alfie instead of hiring someone myself?
Finding a reliable tiler yourself can be time-consuming and uncertain. You don’t know who’s available, what they’ll charge, or whether the finish will be up to standard. Alfie handles everything for you, matching you with a tiler, coordinating the job, and ensuring quality. With our £1,000 Guarantee, you’re protected from start to finish.
What does a tiler do?
A professional tiler handles a wide range of installation, repair, and finishing tasks across kitchens, bathrooms, floors, and walls. Hey Alfie tilers can help with:
- Bathroom tiling – showers, walls, floors, splashbacks
- Kitchen tiling – splashbacks, floors, worktop edging
- Floor tiling – ceramic, porcelain, natural stone
- Wall tiling – any room, any tile type
- Regrouting – renew grout lines, fix mould or crumbling grout
- Tile repairs – cracked tiles, loose tiles, lifting edges
- Tile removal – old tile stripping, disposal, surface prep
- Surface preparation – levelling floors, priming walls, waterproofing
- Silicone sealing – showers, baths, sinks, wet areas
For highly specialist tasks like underfloor heating installation or structural waterproofing, Alfie connects you with the right certified professional.
Can I book a tiler for multiple rooms or tasks?
Yes. List all your tiling jobs at once. Your tiler can often complete multiple tasks or rooms in a single visit, depending on job size and time required. It’s much faster and cheaper than hiring different trades separately.
Do I need to provide tiles or materials?
You can choose either option:
- Provide your own tiles if you already know the brand and style, or
- Ask the tiler to source materials, including tiles, grout, adhesive, trims, and sealant.
Tilers bring their own tools and equipment. Alfie will clarify all of this during booking so nothing gets missed.

How does pricing work on Hey Alfie?
Our pricing is task-based. Alfie calculates the cost using tile type, area size, job complexity, and expected labour time. You’ll always see quotes upfront and for free before you book.
How quickly can I book a tiler?
Many tilers can be booked immediately based on local availability. If you have urgent issues, like loose tiles, cracked areas, or failing grout in a shower, Alfie prioritises getting someone out as soon as possible.
What happens after I book?
You’ll receive a confirmation with details of your tiler. They’ll arrive on time, complete the work to a high standard, and you only pay securely once the job is finished and you’re satisfied. Alfie is there to support you throughout.
What if I’m not happy with the tiling or finish?
Every booking is protected by our £1,000 Alfie Guarantee. If something isn’t right, Hey Alfie will sort it, whether that means a fix from the same tiler or sending a new professional to complete the job correctly.
How does your guarantee work?
If your original tiler doesn’t resolve an issue properly, Hey Alfie will pay up to £1,000 including VAT for a different tiler to fix or complete the work. You’re covered from start to finish with complete peace of mind.
Can a handyman replace single damaged tiles?
Yes. Replacing a single broken or chipped tile is a common request. The handyman removes the damaged piece carefully, matches the replacement tile, and regrouts it so that the repair blends seamlessly. This is a fast, low-cost way to refresh tiled surfaces without full replacement.
How long does re-grouting take?
Minor areas can often be completed within a few hours. Larger kitchens or bathrooms may take one to two days including drying and sealing. A handyman will always confirm timing and recommend when the area can be used again safely.
Can you fix loose or hollow tiles?
Yes. Loose tiles can often be repaired by removing them carefully, cleaning the surface, reapplying adhesive, and resetting them in place. This prevents future cracking and water damage.
Do you seal tiles after installation?
Most handymen seal grout and natural stone surfaces to protect against stains and moisture. This helps extend the life of the installation and keeps it easier to clean.
Are tiling jobs insured and guaranteed?
All tiling and grouting work is carried out by insured professionals and backed by Hey Alfie’s £1,000 guarantee. You can book confidently knowing both the workmanship and your home are protected.
