    My own kitchen

    I did think about doing that, I've seen some of his Porcel-thins on here and they look great. I really wanted to see something in the flesh though. One of my local independants can get me some from Minoli, but can only get me samples of the smaller format tiles in the same colour / style.

    Water damaged plasterboard substrate

    It also looks like a plastic tray and a flimsy 3 / 4mm shower door - both are prone to movement and leaks (I've ripped out dozens of them). I would think its a good opportunity to rip it all out, put a stone tray in, good quality door and tank the lot and retile. Should save the landlord money...

    Use of laser level

    For tile battens I go to B&Q, buy a sheet of 18mm MDF (2.4m x 1.2m) and get them to cut it into strips of about 65mm, gives you a nice straight piece of timber to tile off :thumbsup:

    Best and Worst Tiles You've Worked With Recently

    Gloss white ripple ceramics B&Q colours range 250 x 400, absolutely shocking! Odd sizes, shaped badly, got to be the worst I've seen, and I've fitted a lot of BCT's!! Set myself a target of 10 sq metres today - I only managed 6 :thumbsdown: And to top the day off the customer ran out of coffee...
