I am about to undertake a bathroom floor floor using tiles from origional style.
Any hints or tips as, although I have been tiling for 8 years, this is my first floor of this type.
I have read the fixing guide on their website already but I am sure you will have some real world advise
Thanks Stuart

Have recently laid quite a few victorian floors in Cheshire and so have quite a lot of experience. Does anybody know of any prospective customers or contacts for this type of work?

I have some victorian floor tiles in my porch, they are very clean but dull. Is there anything I can put on to add a bit of shine to them? They seem very porous, also it must be non slip as its a busy thoroughfare.
Thank you very much.
