    Red and black chequred pattern - Market for old Victorian Floor Tiles?

    I have just taken up a floor of the red and black Victorian tiles... I know, it's an absolute travesty! I was wondering if there was any market for these - room was around 1m x 3m and the majority came up whole. Just seems such a shame for them to end up in the skip!! TIA for any responses.

    Builders have installed 15x 900mm tiles with a 2mm pattern and 50:50 brick effect. They suggested 2mm (I previously suggested 4mm), I probably suggested 50:50, but did not know that grout / pattern effected anything but aesthetics. There is now widespread lippage due to what I am told is...

    Setting Out How does this modular pattern work?

    On the diagram the width of tiles equates to 2m for both the rows marked 1 & 2. Row 1 has 6 grout lines Row 2 has 4 So total width of the rows is different, meaning grout spaces would have to be smaller on the row with more grout lines? What am I missing? Thanks

    Tiling pattern

    I'm tiling some fairly standard tiles - 60w by 30h round the bathroom. The last tile on the corner is 20cm so do I make the next tile 40 cm and continue round the room?
