What's so Special About External Tiling by West Lothian Tiling Services?
To confuse people, we've included a picture of an INDOOR swimming pool. What's that to do with External Tiling, you ask? Well, nothing. We thought in today's climate. People wouldn't want to be reminded about sunshine, externally tiled pools, and bronzed happy people drinking cocktails, so we've included a picture of local swimming baths! You can, though, see lots of tile arrangements on the walls, floors, side of the pool, and on the base of the pools. It shows how durable and practical tiles are. You won't get much more pressure on tiles than in public baths!


Here, you can see where tiles can be extended from inside the home or office to outside, making a beautiful, practical patio area. Easy to clean and maintain, it makes so much sense.
