Show Us YOUR Work Thread - Tilers Pictures

[Dave]

Edit May 2024: THIS is a New Show Us Your Work Thread for 2024 Onwards

This is the new Tilers Showcase Forum where we want new tiling work added, with each tiling job you complete having a thread of its own so people can see what kind of work you do, and potential customers can find your work

I thought it was about time we had a thread dedicated to all members of Tilers forums to show us any work that they do.

Be it from installing a kitchen to garden decking. Show us your work! Get those pictures taken, but then do something with them! Actually add them to a thread and some facebook groups with your website link in them etc and it'll help spread the tile love.

If you have done a job then please do share it with us.

Pics are a MUST as what is the point of sharing a job without them..:smilewinkgrin:.

So if you do a job and you take a few pics then please do share it with us.

Lets make it a big thread for all to view and input in.

Thanks Dave ..

[widler]

i know its not tiling,but we had some fun today pebbledashing,started off with our tops off on the back of the house,finished in our raincoats,after building a tent above the scaffold,so we dident have a lump of washed off dashing below the gable. oh the joys:hurray:

 

[Andy Allen]

this is a job i finished last week, 40m2 porcelain tile that looks like slate, it allso shows my prefered method of tiling floors with just a stright edge and no spacers, and a pic of my trusted sigma thats old enough to be in a museum...

 

[The Legend; Phil Hobson RIP]

Nice job Andy, I don't use spacers much for floors. I prefare to work to a staff, if there is a little variation in tile size, spacers are as much use as a chocolate fireguard

 

[doug boardley]

very nice andy, thanks for sharing

 

[jay]

nice work

 

[Dimbo]

Very nice, and stairs are a pain! anyone else think that the 12mm Ali tile trim should have a bigger "under tile" section as it hardly touches the wall with the overhang, I find myself wedging it in place rather than sticking it to the wall?

 

[Mike]

very nice work, i just hate doing floors before the kitchen goes in, you just know it's going to get messed up :mad2:

Hello people. I went around to finish off a job I did for my sister in law today. I thought I would upload the pics here just so you can see that I've not forgoten every thing I learnt.

 

[Noaksy]

Its only fair, i've been looking at others work on here, about time I put something up, heres a job I did last week.

 

[GC-Terrazzo]

How do you get photos up, i did it before but i cant remember how i did it.

 

[Ken Bruty]

Here is an insurance job I did in May, I loaded the pictures in order of sequence, but they have uploaded in a total different order. Anyways, you can see the original problem they had with the wooden flooring - yep, dampness caused the floor to blow at least 2" lumps, it was like a trampoline, so I set to work and disposed of the wood to find one leaky diswasher union under the units, old tiles underneath, some were loose and removed, some old flaky screed, all in all took me 3 full days to prepare and screed. The yellow de-coupler is the new dural ci+. You may notice a slope on the door end of the room which had a drop of 200mm over 1.5 metres, so quite a challenge to get that covered without lips. I bullnosed and polished the tile ends in the doorways, so that no thresholds were needed. It's unfilled trav in bella opus design. :smilewinkgrin: They were well chuffed and I've now got their round the pond patio, bathroom and old part of the cottage reception room to do, the pond area in sandstone and the other rooms in trav

 

[The Legend; Phil Hobson RIP]

Nice work Ken, it's all in the prep.

 

[DHTiling]

Nice floor Ken, how did you find the new Dural Ci+.? ok to work with..

 

[Ken Bruty]

Cheers guys,

Dave, the new ci was easier to fix because the edges didn't try to spring up at all, and it seemed to be easier to lay in a straight line if that makes sense (perhaps more stable), the older one seemed to want to stretch when flattening out, so all in all yes, better mate.

 

[DHTiling]

I haven't tried the new version yet and that was my gripe with the old mat that it used to try and spring up at the edges..so good news that it does want to lay flat.. lol

 

[The Legend; Phil Hobson RIP]

I would agree with that Ken, seems a little more rigid, as you say the old one tended to wander as you laid it:smilewinkgrin:

 

[Colour Republic]

Put some big red glass tiles up today all with silicone:smilewinkgrin:

Job not quite finished yet, floor still needs to be grouted, magic corners still to go in and some other last odds and sods but nearly there with this one.

 

[jay]

Like that

 

[Mike]

nice work c.r. did you do the worktops too? granite by the looks?

 

[Colour Republic]

Yeah Nero Assoluto

Installed them but not fabricated them if that's what you mean :lol:

 

[Mike]

i thought the fabricators would install them as they cut them. i seen some lithuanians fit some for a mate, some skill involved in it

[jay]

As above quality before speed

 

[Nick DeCianti]

Nice one Dave...

I totally agree...I have just put a few pics on here in reply to your request..

Nick

 

[Mike]

nice work mate, i thought you'd tiled the ceiling in picture 2 :lol:

 

[russ1]

Thanks Mike,just one question one of the tiles did not match up to the other tile on the grout line its above the door you cant see it in the pic but why is that all the rest do, is it because the wall runs out like wallpaper so you put the wall paper cut behind the door for instance.
