Hi,
I'm going to be installing a 1200x900 Kaskade wetroom former, and overboard the floor with 6mm No More Ply (as per their recommendations).
Ideally I'd like to avoid the envelope cut needed with larger format tiles. But how big can I go with mosaics before I'd need diagonal cuts?
I've seen...
We are having a bathroom redone after a bad tile job (see my other post). We are going to get porcelain tiles this time but want to try and disguise as best as possible the bowed area of wall above the doorway. I like large tiles, but Would a smaller tile be better to fit and disguise the bow...
Hi all,looking for a bit of advice.
Next month I got to big floor jobs, one will be laying 750x750 tiles and the other 800x800 tiles.
What would be the best manual cutter for large format tiles.
What size spacers would you use?
And yes I will be putting a Silicon expansion in both jobs so was...
Hi guys
What's the smallest tile you've fitted to Durabase decoupling mats. After grinding old adhesive from a floor. Tiles are 300×100 porcelain.
Cheers
what size cutters do you have and use regular?
I always had rubi 400 and 600 and that's covered everything,but since getting the sigma 3c3m im looking to get a smaller one as well. Have you got a cutter for every occasion?
im fitting 300x600 tiles that are 9mm thick.
i read on here that i should use a 10mm round trowel for that size tile and that it will squash down to 6mm.
I assumed that would mean id need 15mm trim but someone at topps tiles said otherwise.
can anyone advise what i need to do/buy?
thanks
Hi all ,

I am trying to find white wall tiles to replace some and they appear to be an unusual size, 196 X 146 mm. Any idea where I may be able to lay my hands on half a dozen or so? 195 X 145 would do if such things exist.
I have discovered a batch of mosaics I got off a job 15 years ago, limestone 10mm x10x 10 in sheet form paper across , the paper has gone so I have two tubs of squares , I bought the Gemini mosiac plastic 300x300 sticky sheets and have been sticking these cubes to these for the last few days...
Was just on my mind and like to hear your views,
have all the rubi trowels 3mm 4.5mm 6mm 8mm 10mm 12mm
Obviously use trowels for small tiles for either
Mosaic for 3mm
Small ceramic 4.5m
Then my 10mm or 12mm for bigger tiles

Hi all. New to the forum.

I've got the sub floor nice and sturdy by gluing and screwing hardibacker down but need some advice on the trowel size for the job.
The tiles are pretty small. They are hexagonal and roughly 26cm x 21cm rock solid 6mm...

Does anyone know of a formula that will calculate how much adhesive is needed for given trowel notch sizes?
If a 20kg bag of cement based adhesive does about 4.5m2 (10mm trowel) then, how far would it have gone using a 3mm mosaic trowel?
There's formulas for grout coverage however, I...

Anybody know what Bore size refers too, Ebauer used to do a disc with 22.2mm bore size, that has been surpassed by a 22.23mm
Is that .2 to .23 going to make the fit to the wet cutter sloppy?
Cheers
Been reading old threads re trowel sizes and notice a lot of the guys have recommended the use of a 10mm 'u' notched trowel for floors. However, such a trowel does not seem to exist. I can buy a 10mm square notched trowel anywhere but not a 10mm 'u' shape. When you mention a 10mm u notched...

A client wants to install a wet room shower. The width of the shower area is 800mm. He ideally wants a fixed glass shower screen of 800/900mm. I have reservations about it being too short, Am i being paranoid or is it acceptable to get a much larger preformed base and go for the shorter screen...
I'm looking for some advice on chosing the correct size for a shower former. I see Marmox has 10+ sizes. Why are there so many sizes to chose from and how do you know which one is most appropriate?
Any help would be great.
