I've just had a 7m x 4m concrete slab laid by a contractor to fix 20mm porcelain to as a patio. Despite the written and verbal specification/briefing stating the importance of the slab being flat (+/-2mm over 2mm) the end result is a slab with high spots of 14mm in several areas. The only way to...
The grout in my bathroom was very old and dirty and I successfully buzzed it all out of the straight, flat lines with a Dremel tool using its carbide blade attachment. However, I can't seem to find the right blade, attachment or tool that will help me get the grout out of the 90 degree corners...

I ned to grind down some concrete high spots to get a better level before I tile, mainly a sand and cement mix without any pebbles. What is the best attachment to use with my 115mm angle grinder. My research on here leads me to a Silicon carbide product, would this be any use --here as I...
I bought some 5" discs (United Abrasives SAIC) along with a flexible backing pad (hook type) to fit into a grinder. (4" also available) for polishing ceramic cut edges. I will also try them in one of my air polishers.
These were from ATS Diamond Tools with some help. (SAIT Velour Silicon...
Hello
When cutting ceramics with my table saw (Wet Saw, 180mm disc, MARCRIST DIAMOND TILE BLADE from screwfix) I get some small chipping to the glaze. On a recent kitchen I moved to cutting almost all tiles with a grinder as it was much quicker (using either a ck850 or Protilers blade) but there...
Has anyone any experience of these blades?
Can I use them as a suitable dry cut and grind disc for ceramics?

So for quite some time now my weapon of choice for re-fabricating tile edges and finishing mitred has been one of these.
A 120# metal disc, great bits of kit.
Recently the supplier stopped selling them and finding a replacement was impossible.
I pestered a few companies to get them in...

This is probably going to seem like a very stupid question, but I gotta ask, because i've seen something that goes completely against something else i was taught a while back.
When grinding a tile, I always make sure that the blade spins down onto the tile. I was told years ago that if the the...
Hi guys,
I've got some latex to remove that's been layed by a builder on a sand & cement screed, I ran a small scraper over it in different areas and it just broke down within seconds back to the screed, so I told client I couldn't tile onto that as it was too weak and the mix ratio must be...

My first post here
Have just started tiling a shower and the corners are proving rather tricky with nothing being square
Some gaps have turned out a little smaller than I wanted and I am worried I will not be able to get enough purchase on the sealant in the corners
