Working in Greenwich
Renovation and tiling for Greenwich homes
Greenwich is on our doorstep. Tilermate is based in Deptford, SE8, so Greenwich homes are among the closest we work on, and we know the area's mix of property well: Georgian and early Victorian houses around the park and Crooms Hill, Victorian terraces towards East Greenwich, and modern apartment developments along the river and on the Peninsula.
That mix shapes the work. Period houses often need careful preparation before any tiling or flooring goes down, because walls and floors are rarely flat or square after 150 years or more. Newer riverside flats tend to raise different questions: managing agent rules, restricted working hours, lift access and the responsibility of working above a neighbour's ceiling.
Whatever the property, Emanuele leads each Greenwich project personally. He trained as a tiler in Italy from a young age, has more than 20 years' experience, and has been working on London homes since 2014. Being close by makes visits, quotes and site checks easy to arrange during our normal hours of Monday to Saturday, 7am to 6pm.
We also work regularly in neighbouring Blackheath, Lewisham borough and across South East London, so if you're comparing quotes for a project anywhere around SE10, we're a practical local choice.
Georgian & early Victorian houses
Tall, narrow rooms, solid walls and old timber floors. Bathrooms are often in converted bedrooms or rear extensions, which affects drainage and layout.
Victorian terraces
Typical rear-extension bathrooms and suspended timber floors that need stiffening before tiles or stone are laid.
Riverside & Peninsula flats
Modern construction with building rules on noise, access and working hours. Leak prevention is critical above other flats.

Local know-how
Common problems we see in Greenwich properties
Uneven walls and floors in period homes
Many Greenwich houses have walls that lean and floors that dip. Tiling straight onto them shows every flaw. We level and prepare surfaces first so tiles sit flat and lines run true.
Flexing timber floors
Suspended timber floors in older terraces move underfoot. Without stiffening, that movement cracks grout and tiles, especially with stone or large-format porcelain.
Leaks into the flat below
In riverside apartments, a failed shower seal or untanked wet area can damage the ceiling of the flat below. Proper waterproofing behind tiles is non-negotiable.
Condensation and poor ventilation
Older bathrooms often have small windows and weak extraction. Persistent condensation leads to mould and failing grout. We plan ventilation as part of the renovation.
Planning a bathroom renovation in Greenwich
Start with the building, not the tiles. In a Greenwich period house, the first questions are where the waste pipes can run, whether the floor needs stiffening and how much the walls are out of true. In a riverside flat, they're about building rules, working hours and how materials get in and out. Answering these first is what keeps a project on schedule.
Next, think about how the room will be used. A family bathroom near the park may need a bath and a separate shower; a one-bedroom flat by the Cutty Sark may be better served by a generous walk-in shower. We'll talk through layouts at the free visit and show you where the tile cuts will fall before anything is ordered.
Finally, allow time for choosing materials. Natural stone and specialist tiles can have longer lead times, and it's better to have everything on site before strip-out begins so the bathroom is out of action for as short a time as possible.
Because we're based in Deptford, Greenwich is one of the easiest areas for us to visit for quotes, material checks and progress reviews. That proximity doesn't change our hours, which remain Monday to Saturday, 7am to 6pm, but it does make it simple to meet on site at a time that suits you, whether you're near the park, in West Greenwich or on the Peninsula.
