    My shower-room is rotting away.

    The previous owner did a fantastic job of tiling the shower room. It lasted about a year before the grout started to crack and eventually a couple of tiles came off.

    Bisazza Paola Steam Room

    Finished a steam room this week that had some unusual angles and external corners. The room is constructed of Lux Elements installed by Helo. Theres hardly a right angle in the whole house.

    Tiling An Uneven Shape Room

    Hi, any tips on how you would tile a room that's not a good shape. I'm laying out tiles but finding the end of the room is causing a huge gap as the walls are not straight. Should I just follow the wall line? I don't see what else I could do. What's the best course of action?
