What do you think guys?
This is for a hall we've gotta do. Tiles are 600x600 Compac Quartz. The hall has all sorts of twists and turns, you can see in the bottom half of the pic I played with 400x400's but discounted that idea.
Any ideas how the setting out could be improved?

Hi,
I've recently moved into a flat in the London County Hall complex (former LCC/GLC offices converted to flats in the mid-1990's) and find that a number of the bathroom wall and floor tiles are cracked. Most worrying are the ceramic white 8" shower wall tiles - white with a clear speckle...

Hi all
I'm going to tile on concrete from my kitchen through to the hallway (I am not having a door, just the door opening) using 300mm x 300mm x about 6mm ceramic tiles. I'm having underfloor heating in the kitchen which will raise the level by 5mm (the thickness of the mat).

I am trying to clean a victorian tiled hall floor but am having a problem.
The floor has been previously sealed with Hg Golvpolish.
I have cleaned the floor back using Hg Remover but the area of the floor that gets the most traffic and is a bit more worn than the rest now looks white and patchy...

Hi, and thanks at the outset to anyone helping with some advice.
I've just found underneath some lino in my hallway, some beautiful Victorian tiles. However, the lino was stuck to the tiles with some brown/yellow glue, and it has been there for about 25-30 years. While I've managed to get off...

Can't quite afford sandstone , like the look of the tumbled trav and the missus he just found some pics of tumbled limestone . We like the lighter ( in colour ) natural stone look .
Difficulty of job is also a factor as I don't have too many stone jobs under my belt:thumbsup:
Thanks for any...
I have offered to tile the floor of the WCs in my village hall for free subject to being able to find some suitable remnant tile stock cheap as chips. Does anyone in the North Yorkshire area have any going spare? Colour unimportant as long as it's light and fairly plain but they must be big...

I need recommendations for products and methods of removing paint and general crud from my hall. I haven't started yet because the tiles are a reddy brown mottle effect with an inserted black grecian edging. I don't want to spoil them if possible. When clean I'd like to seal them. Thanks and...

Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me. I have a victorian house with the a typical hallway layout. Straight in from the door to the stairs and then it widens out to one side to lead to the kitchen.
There is one exception. The house is in a crescent and as a consequence is wedge shaped. The hall...

A householder now wants ceramic tiles in her hallway instead of parquet flooring. I thought that Hardibacker would be the solution, but reading through different threads I now believe that the parquet is best taken up. A tiny bit of the edge of the parquet has worked loose and it has this black...
I have 400 x 400 tiles to lay in my hall which approx 20 sq meters. I'm using a porcelin tile and the the T&G flooring is in good condition with joists at 400 centres. What thickness ply can I use as a minimum to avoid large steps and what adehisve is best used. I plan to use a tiler, but want...
I think the title more or less sums up the requirements of the job. I have tried about 10 tilers from the paper and the Yellow pages.
Lots of people said they would quote - only 2 out of the 10 turned up and only one of them quoted - £30 m2. I asked him for pics and eventually he did send some...
