    Glass tiles and epoxy

    Hi there, I’m pricing a job where the customer has been supplied standard spf adhesive and epoxy grout for her glass tiles. Is there any reason why I shouldn’t just grout with regular flexible grout? Is the epoxy really necessary?

    Tiling with 300x600 Glass Tiles

    Mitring glass tiles

    Afternoon all, got a potential job coming up where the client doesn't want trim, has anyone successfully mitred glass tiles? The tile size is 150x75mm so not a big tile. My thoughts are it will be very difficult to get a mitre without chipping, especially on a cut edge. Thanks in advance.
