Can anyone recommend a good tiler in SE London?

Thank you. Last sentence cracked me up... How long did it take you? (and how large was the room?)

Looking for a screw recommendation. I'm installing an engineered wood floor, 18mm think t&g stuff onto a 22mm chipboard subfloor. Manufacturer says you can install with mechanical fasteners diagonally through the tongue so you dont see them. I assume 99% of the world would do this with a nail gun. I would like to do it with screws because i dont have a nail gun, and also it gives the option to reverse it should I ever need to some day.
I've found these tongue tite screws that look up for the job, but they use a tx10 head and my experience with tx10 is frustrating to say the least (bits dont last long at all). https://www.screwfix.com/p/tongue-tite-tx-countersunk-thread-cutting-floorboard-screws-3-5mm-x-45mm-200-pack/85991
Does anyone know of similar small headed screw that is a tx15? -
Am having a loft conversion done. Part of it meant I had to knock down a bedroom wall to make space for the stair case. I'm building said wall back it it's new location but am trying to decide if I should align it with the face of the stair case, which makes it quite not square with the room, or of I should build the wall square and have a big gap at the back where the stair case meets the wall.
In the photo, the level represents a square wall. You can see the gap I would get, it's looking like a wedge that will be 30mm wide at the back
What to do!?

Any tricks for improving the janky work the previous folk did fitting this flooring around doorways? I'm hanging new doors so the door stops are coming off but I'm very reluctant to remove the lining. I have spare flooring but can't think of a way yo get it in there.

Ta for this. Had the salesmen come over today, got good vibes so fingers crossed the quote isn't outrageous.

Anyone have a recommendation for a loft conversion company? In SE London.
Is there any better hardware for achieving this opening mechasim? Using a brass chain currently but it breaks very easily.
