Hi apologies if this has been asked before but here goes I have recently finished a short introduction to tiling course which I really enjoyed. I took the course to see if I tiling was for me and with a view to eventually starting out on my own. The course covered the basics of floor and wall...

Hi Could anyone give some advice on how to cut out this flush plate that falls in the middle of the tile? Thanks

morning all, I’m laying my first opus floor and was wondering what’s the best way to set out? I’m sure there’s a method that’s simple but I’m scratching my head a bit! Any help gratefully received!

Ufh are very quick to blame the tiler for ufh wires burning out due to tenting when sticking down wires with tape but what about this.you may have to enlarge it to see the gap . But my taping is always 100 percent better than that .

Not to be confused with filler foam. This is a foam adhesive. Fast setting and sticks more than it expands although does expand a bit apparently.

Currently I don’t use leveling clips. Having read about them and seen threads on here I’m considering using them. If I you get a better finish and quicker then why not? When do you guys use them? - size type of tile - wall / floor - do they mean that the surface to be tiled need not be as...

Hi All, Been considering going it alone for a while now. How much can I realistically earn a day or week on my own. What is the going rate? Cheers Donald.

I just had my bathroom redone by a large company that promised their installers will complete the work to the highest standards. Please be honest and give me your professional opinion on the standard of work and what needs doing to put it right if anything.

Evening, hope all is well. Im Looking for a bit of advice regarding setting out on the window wall. Which ever way I play around with it I seem to have a sliver either at the window or both ends. I've attached a photo of the wall and a diagram with the measurements. It would be nice to know...
