    Wondering if the christmas rush happening this year or not? (2024) Just with the state of the economy and house building industry not being brilliant. Hoping you're getting enough to get you into January by now at least. If you do find yourself getting less work a tip is to do 4 day weeks...

    Grout lines too bright after grouting, how to fix this?

    Hello, after tiling the kitchen area I did grouting but I am not happy with the results. The grout lines are too bright, almost white. Although I used almost dry sponge to wipe off the excess grout (with special rollers so I can get the water out), it seems that I managed to wash off pigments...

    How much should I worry about this?

    I just set new porcelain 8 x 8 tile in my rear entryway (3 ft x 3 ft area). I love the results and wanted everything to be perfect and by the book. So, these two things are worrying me. Worry #1: One of the tiles is touching a door frame in a couple of spots (see pic). The door frame is...

    Advice for this area please, picture attached

    Hi, first time I’m posting 👋🏽 I’m after some advice please. Is this area going to need plastering before tiling or will tile backerboards be ok to use? Not looking for a quick fix as I want to do it properly but I know plastering will delay the tiling. Thanks ☺️

    Is this overkill for a tiled floor?

So the kitchen floor tiles have been taken up and remaining adhesive removed. The concrete floor 'looks' dry and feels fine, if not cold at times. Prior to the tiles being...

    How do I fill this gap between marble tile and metal window frame?

    Hello everyone. My building had bricking work done on the outside and it seems in the process they've yanked the shower window away from where it was seated before. Creating this gap between the tile and exterior frame. How do I fill this gap? Should I use grout or something else? Thank you!

    Groundwork company refusing to guarantee work - is this right?

    Please help judge this work, looking for expertise!

    Hi all, I have just had someone tile my front path but to me it looks a little odd, but no idea if this is acceptable and I'm being too fussy. They were laid 4 days ago and for some reason they are still lifting super easy, I am not sure why. If anyone can advise it would be hugely appreciated.
