We have just had a slate backsplash installed all round the kitchen benchtops. The builder sealed it with 2 coats of Tasmanian Chemicals Premium Long Life Gloss, which the slate supplier had sold us for that specific job. Unfortunately, steam from the kettle left a plume of white glaze across...
I’ve had arguments with ‘tilers’ who tell me that levelling clips are a gimmick and they’re not needed. Well look what happened to some plonker who said this to me. The floor without the clips is obvious and by pure coincidence I finished one yesterday were clips were used. I got a call by a...
As the title. I have my daughters kitchen splashback to tile.
In the examples Ive seen the worktops seem to be taken as level and full tiles (metro) form the bottom layer.
My question is how do you address if the worktop is not level? Do you mark a line about half a metro up and cut the bottom...

I've been using clips more frequently these days due to tile size, rectified edge tiles etc... trouble is over the month they can be quite expensive if you're using them on several jobs. Question is do you charge for the clips or not?
Hi there,
My wife and I are doing our basement and purchased tile through a reputable company who did the install. They finished today and I am not very pleased with the results and am looking for some opinions on the quality of the work.
We were told this tile is not grouted, yet as you can...

Hi,
I'm looking for some tips on installing mosaic sheets, they are going to be installed in a kitchen as spashbacks. I'm looking for advice on planning and how to cut them in around sockets. Also how to get them flat to the wall without them dipping and bowing out. I think they are glass...
Hi I have been working in New Zealand where I used tile wedges from a company called TileMax - they had them made by a company in China. They were bigger than any others i have found in the UK. They are about 80mm long by 15mm wide by 12mm tall, the only ones i can get here are 50mm by 8mm by...

See photo... is this standard preparation for a mosaic glass splash back in the bathroom?
The wall was freshly painted.
Will this need now to be skimmed or can the tiles be applied immediately to this surface with some good adhesive? Is a mesh of some sort required for alignment?
The tiles...
Has anyone tried these yet they look like a direct copy of RLS, but I'm wondering how the quality compares?

I had a old customer ring last week asking if you could tile onto these coloured glass splashback panels in a kitchen.
I said yes but I'd find out what the best preparation and adhesive would be.
So is it possible and what's the method?
Hi all,
Not sure where to post this.
Where is the cheapest place to buy raimondi 3mm base clips?
Got 26m2 of 0.15x0.50 wood effect floor tiles to lay few days before xmas and was thinking of using raimondi clips to speed up install to finish it before xmas.
question of the day :)
kitchen splashback to be tiled.
guess what are those designs square and rectangular?
I already I know, because you already made one. ;)
ps. always invisible kitchen ;)
This is a kitchen splashback that Gary did with me in Hoxton East London.
2400 X 800 x 6mm porcelain from the casadolcecasa magnum range, Calacatta.
No joints except for the corners, definitely something that could catch on I believe.

After a long search on the internet I managed to source some really well made loose wire underfloor heating wire clips. These are in fact galvanised steel banding with clips built in. I had to import a whole load for a few ufh projects I have and they have been an absolute God send! I also...
Just had a look at the RLS clips and thinking about moving with the times and giving them a go. I normally use 2 mm spacers, are the 1.5 mm clips compatable with 2mm spacers or do you not need spacers with the clips also are the pliers needed. I know this is a topic that is well covered on here...
