For the past decade, City Tiles & Bathrooms has been a 'one stop shop' for any customer's needs.
For customers and clients in search of the perfect bathroom, Pat Roche has a simple response: “If you’re looking for a tile or bathroom solution, we’ll find one to suit you. If you have a design requirement, we’ll solve it.”
As the managing director of City Tiles & Bathrooms, he and his team are celebrating the remarkable milestone of ten years in business with a mantra that says: “We anticipate every customer’s needs, and work closely with them to deliver the exact bathroom that they want.”

With four showrooms nationwide — Dublin, Limerick and two in Cork at Togher and Blackpool — City Tiles & Bathrooms have developed a nationwide reputation as Ireland’s ‘must-visit’ destination for customers seeking top quality yet affordable ceramic and porcelain tiles, bathroom sanitary ware, showering solutions and bathroom accessories.
“We pride ourselves in dealing courteously and efficiently with customers, be that delivering directly into their homes or providing a first class back up service. Our deliveries to customers are efficient and we go out of our way to facilitate the customer needs on every occasion.”
Pat established the company in 2013, and was the driving force behind the development of the Tubs & Tiles and Heat Merchants brands into Irish household names.
With a lifetime’s expertise in every area of ceramic tiling and commercial specification, his keen eye for sourcing the latest in top quality style and designs from Europe’s leading manufacturers has made City Tiles & Bathrooms the ‘one stop shop’ for any customer’s needs.

“Dedication to getting a recommendation from the customer is at the core of what we do. Our goal is not just to sell tiles and bathrooms — our goal is to get a recommendation from the customer that will help us sell tiles and bathrooms.
“The majority of our business comes from that all important ‘word of mouth’ recommendation by satisfied customers telling their friends and colleagues at the office or in the company canteen. The phrase “I couldn’t recommend City Tiles & Bathrooms enough” is what I want to hear on every transaction. That kind of customer response is what has made this business so successful over the past 10 years.”
Creating the perfect bathrooms is a very technical endeavour, Pat explains, a project requiring knowledge of plumbing systems, room dimensions, and what products work best for the individual customer, be they a young family or elderly couple.
“Customers need to have the comfort of knowing the company they’re dealing with has the expertise and back-up required to do the job to the highest possible standards. For many people, a new bathroom is a job for life, and needs to be of a standard that will do exactly that.”
