First time poster here.
For some context, I have a (mostly finished) tiny home with some really shoddy finish work. We’ve cut ties with the contractor and now have a badly done, half finished bathroom. The contractor set the shower/backsplash wall tile with liquid nails instead of the proper...

Hi all,
I’ve been trying to seek advice on whether the recently finished tiling/grouting in my bathroom is acceptable or not. I don’t think it is and neither do any of my friends or family.
The job took place over a Monday-Thursday and every evening I would see errors that I would have to...
Hey everyone!
Just want to say first of all that I am not a tiler or anything I’m just in need of some advice if possible!
My parents got their chimney breast done in Split Face Slate Tiles and I’m not sure if this is how it should have been left, I’ll try and attach images but there is a lot of...
Posted a couple of times for advice a few weeks back, the outcome of which was to scrap my plan to tile over the old bevelled tile kitchen splashback, and to rip out the old tiles and start from scratch instead. The old plasterboard ripped off with the tiles so the job also entailed screwing in...
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...
How do I calculate what my finished thinset thickness will be after setting a tile?
So I understand a simple uniform square notch such as a 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 will leave 1/4 inch
But what about for something such as a U notch that is 9/16 x 3/4 x 3/8?
(id really like to know this one -i bought...

Thank God that's over. It nearly broke me and caused a divorce ;)
Nobody told me that porcelain tiles are the work of the devil. I reckon the one day I broke about ten tiles and at £15 each I had to tell my wife that the tile shop under estimated when I ordered another £300 worth.
Its not...
Hi all,
I've just had 4m2 of white bevelled metro tiles done in my kitchen by a guy who according to reviews is always really neat, tidy etc.
After a day and a half of work, he has finished and left. Looking from afar, it looks OK but looking up close it is anything but neat and tidy and has...

Hi guys.
So, I've been asked to do a bathroom for a customer but I'm not sure the best way to go about it.
It's an ensuite in an old georgian house, 1st floor. I went to see the job a few weeks ago but could actually get into the room as it was full of building materials (they're renovating...
Customer joked on Monday regarding what would happen if she went into labour while I was there? I said she could call it rubi after my tile cutter. haha
anyway her waters broke yesterday and as we speak is probably screaming her head off! I promise it will all be done by the time you get home ;)...
