Hi everyone,
I'm attempting to tile a new kitchen splashback using cube shape mosaic sheets and all going well, except I'm not sure how best to finish the grouting.
The splashback will not go to the ceiling and there are no wall cupboards.
There's several examples of the same style on this...
Good afternoon everyone. I'm in the process of doing some refurbishment at my flat and the kitchen is my last area to tackle. I've taken.off the old tiles and that took the plaster with it. So a few weeks ago I had that re skimmed. The tiles I'll be using are 100x200 non bevelled metro tiles...
Hi all,
I was hoping I could get a little advice.
Currently doing a bit of tiling in the kitchen and have a few internal corners. When I have to cut a tile that reaches the corner do I need to replicate the same length of tile on the wall next to it or can I use a full length tile or do I use...
Just about to start tiling the final wall in my kitchen I've tiled all the way around up to the units and now I'm just left with the final wall which doesn't have units.
I'm setting out and to keep the level of the tiles from under the units on to the wall without units I would have to have a...
Ok, strange one. My customer was advised to chalk his walls. He has removed the old tiles and adhesive in the kitchen which, luckily, has left the walls in a fairly straight condition. But he had bought tubes of chalk and kind of applied it like you would with plaster to the whole wall. I have...
Hello all,
I have a job this week doing a kitchen splash back and window reveal. The wall behind hob has a boxed in section which means extra cutting. I had originally planned and customer agreed that they wanted mitred externals. They have now changed their mind and want to use white round...
Hi folks, new to the forum and I'm a DIY novice with no tiling experience to speak of. Been reading through the forum recently and got some great tips and I'm considering a tiling course further down the line.
Quick question for those with more experience; started tiling my kitchen splashback...
Hello looking for a bit of advice. I’m planning on doing a splash back above my sink. So far I have the tiles and trim. Was wondering what’s the best adhesive and grout to use as there is glass tiles on the mosaic sheet and I’ve also heard that the tiles need treated with something after the...
We have just had a slate backsplash installed all round the kitchen benchtops. The builder sealed it with 2 coats of Tasmanian Chemicals Premium Long Life Gloss, which the slate supplier had sold us for that specific job. Unfortunately, steam from the kettle left a plume of white glaze across...

As the title. I have my daughters kitchen splashback to tile.
In the examples Ive seen the worktops seem to be taken as level and full tiles (metro) form the bottom layer.
My question is how do you address if the worktop is not level? Do you mark a line about half a metro up and cut the bottom...

My wife and I are doing our basement and purchased tile through a reputable company who did the install. They finished today and I am not very pleased with the results and am looking for some opinions on the quality of the work.
We were told this tile is not grouted, yet as you can...

Hi,
I'm looking for some tips on installing mosaic sheets, they are going to be installed in a kitchen as spashbacks. I'm looking for advice on planning and how to cut them in around sockets. Also how to get them flat to the wall without them dipping and bowing out. I think they are glass...
Hi I have been working in New Zealand where I used tile wedges from a company called TileMax - they had them made by a company in China. They were bigger than any others i have found in the UK. They are about 80mm long by 15mm wide by 12mm tall, the only ones i can get here are 50mm by 8mm by...

See photo... is this standard preparation for a mosaic glass splash back in the bathroom?
The wall was freshly painted.
Will this need now to be skimmed or can the tiles be applied immediately to this surface with some good adhesive? Is a mesh of some sort required for alignment?
The tiles...
I had a old customer ring last week asking if you could tile onto these coloured glass splashback panels in a kitchen.
I said yes but I'd find out what the best preparation and adhesive would be.
So is it possible and what's the method?
question of the day :)
kitchen splashback to be tiled.
guess what are those designs square and rectangular?
I already I know, because you already made one. ;)
ps. always invisible kitchen ;)
This is a kitchen splashback that Gary did with me in Hoxton East London.
2400 X 800 x 6mm porcelain from the casadolcecasa magnum range, Calacatta.
No joints except for the corners, definitely something that could catch on I believe.
