Built to be lived in
At Tivoli Tiling, our inspiration comes from the longevity of traditional tiling methods of the Mediterranean. Built to be lived in, built to become part of the earth; withstanding heat, rain and natural earth movements.
The Modern Solution
Drawing inspiration from the past, with modern technology
Essential for projects with underfloor heating, decoupling matting helps heat distribute evenly and serves as a waterproof layer to protect wiring.
Portuguese, Italian and Spanish tilers hundreds of years ago relied upon sand and lime-based mortars to allow the floor to 'breath' and shift with the earth over time.
We now prevent tile cracking with high-grade anti-fracture matting that serves as a cushioning layer allowing the subfloor to expand and contract.
Working with Natural Variation
When working with natural stone, it's vital to work with, not against, the variations in veins, colours and textures.
We always use an artistic eye when arranging natural stone and are happy to discuss these decisions with you.
The Sealing Process
We use impregnating sealant that penetrates the pores of the tile and grout to create an invisible, stain-resistant barrier.
