    Tile Levelling systems

    i know it’s a touchy subject some times but after using the genesis levelling system daily for several weeks, it’s flaws are greater than its plus points so I’m after something else.

    Levelling clips are a load of tosh? Really?

    I’ve had arguments with ‘tilers’ who tell me that levelling clips are a gimmick and they’re not needed. Well look what happened to some plonker who said this to me. The floor without the clips is obvious and by pure coincidence I finished one yesterday were clips were used. I got a call by a...

    Tile levelling systems ??

    Never used these before. Largest format I've worked in is 600x600 but have a few bathrooms in 300x1000 coming up. Worth trying? And if so any recommendations on a reasonably priced kit Cheers Neil
