Hi... I'm so confused! I need to choose some tiles for an en suite - the same for the walls and floor. The walk-in shower will be at one end with a partial glass screen but no divide on the floor or tray so (I've been told) it's a wetroom. There's lots of advice I've been given but don't know...

We have around 50m2 of 120cm x 20cm porcelain floor tiles to lay onto 75mm screed. I understand the tiles should not be laid for at least a couple of weeks after pouring the screed and using ditra matting or similar would be wise. There will also be wet underfloor heating which we may turn on...

So for quite some time now my weapon of choice for re-fabricating tile edges and finishing mitred has been one of these. A 120# metal disc, great bits of kit. Recently the supplier stopped selling them and finding a replacement was impossible. I pestered a few companies to get them in...

I have about 42 sqm of porcelain tiles that are too slippery for my dogs when wet and I want to coat them with something gritty to make them a little anti slip. I have looked at a clear resin mixed with a little sand as an option. Any recommendation for a better option?

A while back I posted a question on the quality of Norcros adhesives in general. This time want to know if anybody has experience of using Norcros "white porcelain and stone tile adhesive" with porcelain tiles on walls and would they recommend it? There are 3 types though...

Afternoon all. I have been contacted by a new customer who says they have a problem with a stain on a polished white porcelain floor tile. They tell me the stain is from a terracotta dish they put on the floor for a dog drinking bowl, but it has left a nice brown stain on the tile which they...
