    I've bought a Coram shower tray with upstands. I'm going to tile straight onto plasterboard. I notice the tray is quite proud on the wall. Would you guys/gals recommend cutting into the plasterbaord to recess the tray and make it flush for the tiling?

    Bevel Tiles after Wet/Dry Cut ?

    Hi all, When I have wet or dry cut some of my tiles, I've tended to bevel off the sharp edge with a grinder usually around doorways where there is a slight difference in levels between one area and another, thought it looked better and safer on the toes Is this good practise ?
