Hello
I am attempting to restore a Victorian tiled floor myself, lack of funds demands that.
Have seen a number of threads talking about cleaning tiles when fixed, but how do I clean a large number of tiles that were loose when the carpet was lifted. There's a mixture of adhesive, grout, glue...
Victorian Geometric Hallway Flooring. Geometric Floor Tiling by Timeless Tiles John.
Nothing straight, nothing level, carpet fitters, painters and every other trade walking around me!
Almost lost the will to complete till today. Dark pictures at 8.00 tonight but big floor to start tomorrow.
I am looking to source some original/reproduction geometric tiles, I have found sites like original style etc but wondered if anyone on here had contacts or a good source of reclaimed floors that won’t normally be found by searching google.
I only need around 2sqm, it’s for my own house and...

Hi
Attached is a picture of my hallway and as you can see it has minton/geometric tiles.. From the picture it looks in good condition but there are quite a number of cracked and damaged tiles.. I have a few spare tiles from another area of the house that I've lifted but not enough to replace...

I'm new to posting on the forum but have had a good look around and have already found lots of interesting and valuable advice. It seems there are some decidedly baddass experts who contribute! Thank you for the info I have already gleaned and I hope you might be able to help me with a...
About 17 years ago my son and I did this. We dug up the path, relaid and built a hardstand at the side. We were passing this job just last week and I told him to go and see how it was, take a photo if it was still ok and run if not!;) It was one of our first joint ventures.
