    What have they used instead of grout?

    I have just moved into a 1950s build (1930s design) block of flats. All windows have a tile windowsill, original feature as all hundred odd flats have it. With time, they have suffered a bit, and I want to revive them colour wise, and refresh the grouting (even if it is with a grouting pen) I...

    Will they sheen up?

    Hi all, hope you are all well. After 7 months, we have actually found tiles of the same batch that the tilers ran out of last December when tiling our live/eat/kitchen area. Obviously they are a colour match, but we were quite surprised to see the original ones have much more of a sheen than...

    Can tilers plug their local tile stores that they use please?

    I think this is okay to do. I can't see this upsetting a relationship you have. But by all means if you want to keep your suppliers to yourself, don't do this. That said, if you don't mind doing so, and do want to give your local tile store some acknowledgement (and perhaps one day therefore...

    Old Post Counts - And why they change

    It has come to my attention again that post counts are being questioned for being too low, or not what some members expected. There's no conspiracy around it. The forum recalculates post counts every now and again. And it will count only those that are online and active the day it counts them...
