I have attached a picture of the rear of a 450 x 450 x 9 porcelain floor tile.
The ridges on the back seem super shallow compared with all the others I have ordered.
Should I query this with the supplier?
Hi everyone,
New to this forum, but having only read threads as a non member (very useful advice and tips, so many thanks!) thought I'd join up and try to get some advice on fitting my mosaic borders.
I've fitted large tiles leaving gaps for a mosaic.
So, 5mm adhesive + 10mm main tile = 15mm gap...
Is there a technique for doing this with metal edge trim?
Eg, is it best to tile the whole face of the wall, with all of the 4 window sides cut straight and square, being raised proud by a set distance to allow for the trim/adhesive and inner tiles to meet up squarely when fitted later?
If so...

Hello everyone,
I'd really appreciate some advice. I did some tiling in our upstairs bathroom just under a year ago but left it half-completed. We don't use that bathroom and life got in the way as it does! I'm now coming back to it and am starting to doubt myself on some of the work!!

We have recently had our kitchen floor tiled. 4 weeks after fitting when walking upon the tiles loud cracks like snapping sticks were audible. The tiles looked to be sound with no cracks visible. After 5 months cracks have appeared mainly in the middle of the floor and on the periphery of the...

We've introduced a new range of Vacuum Brazed Dry Diamond Holesaws with M14 fitment to attach directly to angle grinders. Very similar to the Rubi dry core range or the Marcrist PG750X-M14 range.
