    Expansion gaps and transitions!!

    Silicon movement joints are ok short term but look grubby after six months ...I would use Schluter’s perimeter and intermediate profiles. ..many colours and does not deteriorate like Silicon making you install look better for longer.

    Am I being picky or is this a bad job?..

    Looks like a poor job... from the picture of the removed tile it looks like the old tiles were removed and the old adhesive has just had the high points removed....I would have used levelling compound be fore tiling to get a better floor.

    So I have. The company is VividPromotion.com - The owner of it is an old friend who's actually let me have some office space here so I can get out the bloody house and go to work like a real human does. 🙂


    Anyway, going to stick some bundles together specific to each trade. So Best Tiler and Tile Installer workwear supplier bundles.​
