Floor Tiling Installation in Lagos, Nigeria
Our Floor Tiling Installation in Lagos covers tile selection guidance, screed levelling, setting out and grouting for living rooms, kitchens, bathrooms and commercial floors in homes and businesses.
Floor Tiling Installation by My Space Design
A tiled floor in Lagos has to cope with heavy foot traffic, sand carried in from outside and regular mopping. Our Floor Tiling Installation in Lagos begins with the base: we check the screed for level, hollow spots and moisture, and repair or relay it where needed. A flat, cured substrate keeps tiles from cracking, rocking or lifting and gives grout lines that run straight from wall to wall.
We guide you on tile choice for each room. Polished and matt porcelain suits living rooms and lobbies, anti slip ceramic and textured porcelain suit bathrooms and kitchens, and granite or heavy duty vitrified tiles suit shops and restaurants. We explain sizes, rectification, slip ratings and colour batches so the tiles you buy match the room and arrive in the right quantity with allowance for cuts.
Setting out is planned from the centre of the room so cut tiles sit evenly at the edges and doorways. We lay large format tiles with levelling clips, coat the back of each tile for full adhesive cover and finish with skirting tiles and transition strips. Property owners in Ipaja, Alimosho and the rest of Lagos receive a cost estimate based on floor area, tile type and pattern before we start.
Scope of work
What our floor tiling installation includes
Floor screed and levelling
We check the existing floor with a straight edge and spirit level, break out hollow or cracked screed, and lay new sand and cement screed or self levelling compound to create a flat base for tiling.
Tile selection guidance
We advise on porcelain, ceramic, vitrified and natural stone tiles, comparing wear rating, slip resistance, water absorption and size. You get a quantity list with a cutting allowance and guidance on matching batch numbers.
Waterproofing for wet areas
Bathroom and shower floors receive a liquid waterproofing membrane with reinforcing tape at wall junctions and drains. We form falls toward the floor trap so water drains away and stays out of the slab below.
Laying and pattern work
We lay straight, diagonal, herringbone and offset patterns using tile adhesive, spacers and levelling clips. Large format slabs are back coated with adhesive and bedded with a notched trowel to remove voids under the tile.
Grouting and movement joints
Joints are filled with cement or epoxy grout in a colour you choose, then cleaned and sealed. We leave flexible movement joints at walls and across large floors so the tiles can expand in the heat.
Skirting and finishing trims
We fit tile skirting, stair nosings, aluminium edge trims and threshold strips between rooms. These details protect tile edges from chipping and give clean junctions where flooring meets walls, doors and other floor finishes.
Our process
How we tile a floor from survey to handover
- Step 1
Measure and inspect
We measure each room, check the floor for level, cracks and damp, and agree the tile layout, pattern, starting point and doorway details with you on site.
- Step 2
Estimate and tile order
We prepare a cost estimate covering screed repair, adhesive, grout, trims and labour, along with a tile quantity list so you or we can order the full amount from a single batch.
- Step 3
Base preparation and laying
Old tiles are removed where required, the screed is repaired or levelled, wet areas are waterproofed, and our tilers lay the floor from the planned centre lines outward.
- Step 4
Grout, clean and inspect
After the adhesive cures we grout, clean off haze, fix skirting and trims, and tap test the floor for hollow tiles with you before handover of the finished room.
Materials and components
Floor tiles and setting materials we install
Floor tiling depends as much on the materials under the tile as the tile itself. We pair each tile type with the right adhesive class, grout and trims, and use waterproofing and levelling products suited to the floor, the room and the foot traffic.
- Porcelain floor tiles
- Ceramic floor tiles
- Vitrified tiles
- Granite tiles
- Marble tiles
- Cement based tile adhesive
- Epoxy grout
- Self levelling compound
- Waterproofing membrane
- Aluminium edge trims

Questions
Floor Tiling Installation FAQs
How much does floor tiling cost in Lagos?
The price of Floor Tiling Installation in Lagos depends on the floor area, the condition of the screed, the tile type and size, and the laying pattern. We measure the space and give you a cost estimate before work begins.
Can you lay new tiles over old tiles?
Sometimes. If the existing tiles are firmly bonded, level and free of cracks, we can tile over them with a suitable primer and adhesive. Where tiles sound hollow or the floor is uneven, we remove them and prepare a fresh screed.
Which floor tiles are best for Lagos homes?
Porcelain and vitrified tiles suit most Lagos homes because they absorb very little water, resist scratching from sand and are easy to mop. For bathrooms and outdoor steps we recommend matt or textured tiles with a higher slip rating.
Do you supply the tiles or do I buy them?
Either works. Our Floor Tiling Installation in Lagos includes supply guidance, so we give you a quantity list and specification to buy from your preferred supplier, or we source the tiles as part of the job and include them in the estimate.
