    Need ideas for rearranging ensuite.

    What do you mean by leave you room to have any shower? Tge wall is 2m wide. If I leave the sink on same wall I'll still have room for a 900 wide shower wet tray. I can even cut it down to 850mm to gain another 2 inches. Maybe even take 100mm of the 1500 length of the wet insulated tray to...

    Sand and cement screed down. How long

    I just bought an anti cracking mat and green screed addy in the tile store. They recommended the green screed addy can be used 10-14 days after sand and cement screed is laid. I have 3 SQ meters to lay although I only got one bag. This should cover the tiles but I'm not sure about both, as in...

    Sand and cement screed down. How long

    I have a newly laid screed 75mm thick sand and cement laid 2 weeks ago. I'm stuck for time and need the ensuite floor tiles asap. Is there any products you can recommend for me so I can start laying now rather than wait another few weeks before it's fully dry.

    Tile hole drill bit set. Which one

    I'm looking information on a drill bit hole set and a decent 4 inch blade that'll cut all tiles. I used to buy the 365 hole set however I can't seem to find online the set I used to purchase. Infact I can't find much of that brand anywhere. Maybe they've stopped making them. It's been a long...

    Thinking of starting out on my own how much can I earn a day/week?

    You can earn as much as you'll put in. It's not just about the work when your on your own. You have to be good at selling yourself as well and if your excellent, then learn how to demand top dollar. I know one tradesman, amazing at his work but really useless at getting top money. He always...
