Hello, I'm just a home owner who doesn't have much experience with tiling but I'm looking for advice on fixing a few problems that a professional left me with. He of course has not responded to any messages.
Basically it turns out that he used the dot and dab method when retiling my bathroom...
Hi, I’m going to be laying 8.5mm 600mm x 600mm porcelain bathroom tiles soon. What sort of tile cutter would you recommend using. I’m probably going to hire one for a week.
Hi folks,
Not a large amount of experience tiling but I did a respectable job on a kitchen backsplash with metro tiles a few years back.
My wife has decided she wants a particular tile fitted to our shortly to be renovated bathroom.
These tiles are B&Q ceramic 600mm x 200mm and they have a...
I’ve just had my bathroom renovated by a chap recommended by my neighbour.Firstly he quoted by day abs said it would take 10 days! It took 22 so labour cost was £4000I’ve had him come back because the floor tiles are moving and grout cracked. He re grouted using Silicon
Now a tile has fallen...
I didn't tile this old bathroom but I'm cleaning it up, one tile is missing and needs to be almost half an inch forward to match the tiles around it. Can I use extra adhesive? Or extra cement? Or something else like mortar? I really need to get this fixed. Any tips would be appreciated.

Hi I’d be very grateful for advice. I had a bathroom fitted a couple of months ago and have just noticed that many of the metro tiles have spidery cracks in them. There is no pattern to them - some cracks run up through a couple of tiles but they’re not all adjacent. I’m sure they weren’t there...
Hi had bathroom refurbished 4/5 years ago. A few years ago I noticed a vertical crack on tiles from ceiling down through 2.5 tiles. Looking today it’s actually through the rest of the third tile and there is a crack going off at an angle from original crack on top tile. Also on the top tile it’s...
Tiler used dot dab on bathroom tiles but saying it’s not a problem. What can we reasonably expect to happen here?
The tiler finished our bathroom today and when we’ve questioned the circular marks coming through the tile he’s confessed to using dot dab but doesn’t seem to think it’s a problem...
Looking to get a bit of advice, tried searching through forums but there was no definitive answer.
What's the overall consensus on tiling a newbuild bathroom floor?
I am moving in next month which has Caberfloor P5 chipboard installed and wall tiles on one wall. ( attached picture if that...
Hi,
My family has been having issues whenever someone takes a shower the water slips through the tiles and floor boards to our dining room. This has been going on for numerous years. We can't seem to find a solution and need to find a reasonable price solution.
It would be appreciative if you...
Hi, In the space of a couple of weeks my beautiful gray/ block stone bathroom tiles on the floor of the shower have developed white spotty patches in various locations. What are these marks ? Apparently we have soft water and thus it’s unlikely to be calcium or hard water stains.
I did change...
Hi all. Back end of last year we had a new bathroom installed with a walk in shower. About 6 weeks ago we noticed the bottom tiles around the shower tray were looking a bit off colour. It seems they have absorbed some water somehow. I have attached a pic so you can see. We decided to leave the...

We had them installed pre Christmas and this last week the middle section of the tiles have all lifted / peaked up and cracked. 4 tiles...

Hello,
Can anyone help me to find my bathroom tiles?
I'm planning changes in my bathroom, which will mean exposing part of the wall which was not tiled (being hidden behind units and a bath) - so I'm looking for these tiles to tile the exposed areas - see attached photos.
So I am looking for...
Just had bathroom tiled. Good job but grout on wall tiles has seaped its way into every groove of the tile...floor tiles are spotless though.

Hi and thanks for letting me post on here. Sorry if this is a long post, trying to just do the main points as it's been a bit of a nightmare.
The problem is with the wall tiles in our new bathroom. It was tiled last July with British Ceramic Tile V&A tiles. These are ceramic 152mm x 152mm.
We...
