    Norcros adhesives closing down.

    Just read this morning that norcros are closing down after it has been decided it is no longer profitable to run. 70 people set to lose jobs which is a shame. They were told yesterday at the Stoke-on-Trent factory.

    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.

    Self leveler required vs lay down tile per instructions?

    I have a 12'x'12' room on concrete slab. The floor is relatively flat, but using a 8' spirit level, I can see there are slight high and low spots. I'm installing 8" x 48" porcelain tile so Im assuming they are prone to breaking easier if the floor isnt perfectly flat due to their length. Do I...

    How efficiently do you think you work ? Do you think there's room for improvement? What things have you picked up allong the way that save that extra bending down, that extra few mins here and there?
