    Finishing off a ceiling - Do we have too much gap?

    Hi all, We were feeling all very pleased with our first attempt at a tiling job until we started thinking about how to finish the tiles at the ceiling. Examining a B&B's bathroom one weekend we noticed their apparently immaculate 2mm grout lines at the ceiling. Then we went back and looked at...

    How much should I expect to pay to retile front path in black/white victorian style?

    We have been quoted around £**. This seems high to me, and I would appreciate any guidance. The front path needs replacing, as the quarry tiles that are currently in place are all cracked and many are missing. I live in North London, and any advice would be really welcome! Kirsty

    How much to spend on a new blade?

    50M^2 travertine. Dusting off the old wet tile cutter, it's cutting OK, but a bit of a push. Assuming I'm not going professional here! What's it worth for a serviceable (non frustrating) 180mm blade? £4.50 for two? (Screwfix green things) £20, £50?
