Course description
Tastes and styles can vary across a range of people and on occasion there can sometimes be a requirement for older style tiling effects. To cater for this, Able Skills has devised a 5-day tiling course to teach you how to lay Victorian tiles.
What Youll LearnOur tiling centre is not just for those new to the industry, it also has facilities and courses available to existing tilers who need to gain extra skills or who may come across a job that they have previously not encountered.
One of the specialist areas becoming increasingly popular is Victorian tiling and the course that we have devised will enable you to undertake this area of tiling work.
Able Skills Victorian Tiling Course
Victorian effect tiled areas are not the choice of every individual but in some areas, there are original floors to be found and in other areas, replica Victorian floors are the preferred covering. Either way, there is a call for Tilers to be able to lay a Victorian themed floor. Able Skills has devised this Victorian Tiling course for tilers who would like to be able to specialise in this area and offer this service as part of their portfolio of work.
How Youll LearnVictorian Tiling Course
Designing and planning a Victorian floor can be a complex task so we have devised this course to help you undertake this area of tiling. At the start of this 5-day course we will provide you with a specification to follow and the training to complete the tasks will include:
- Planning your floor
- Installation of your tiles
- Sealing
- Cleaning
- Grouting
We will explain all areas including floor levelling, tile cutting and how to select the right tiles to gain that Victorian effect for your specific area.
You will complete 2 separate patterns over the period of the week.
