Hi all. Just got a trim line account and wondering if there are any bargains to be had. Got the catalogue which only shows retail and everything I've asked about so far seems a little pricey.

Can anyone recommend a decent green laser, I'm not bothered about self levelling etc as I purely want it for setting out larger floor areas etc, like a modern day chalk line. looked at Dewalt but I can't warrant spending that kind of money. I did have one a while ago but i must have left it on a job
This may seem like a trivial question ,but it's one of the most important pieces of kit we use and I've never really had one that I can say was brilliant, the best I've probably had is a Stanley fat max.
So is there a chalk line out there that anyone thinks is very good?
Thought I'd ask as...
We've had the wet room tiled and it looks great. It's time now to fix a shower accessory shelf and a toilet roll holder. The tiles are approx 400mm long & 300mm high normal ceramic.Is it best to drill through the grout lines or through the tile? I was just wondering if drilling through the grout...

Hi all.
When fixing the first lot of tiles - Why do I see people "baton" the wall for the first set..??
Why do you not start from the bottom & tile upwards?
Or is it just a preference people use?
Thanks
Got the PRG1 10x20 tiles for the bathroom. Would like thin grout lines. Think johnsons recommend 3mm, but would like 2mm or (possibly 1.5mm). Think 2mm should be ok, 1mm too small, but maybe I'd get away with 1.5mm. Shower is tanked. Thoughts? 2mm for prudence? Tiles are all the same batch...
I have just tiled a shower using rapid set Mapei cement and 150mm * 70mm white bonded tiles onto a soid ashlar wall. Having grouted with grey grout I can see that about 10 tiles have hairline cracks. Two of these cracks continue across two tiles so would dictate that cracks were not on the tiles...
