Hello, I am a noob trying to tile our shower. Since the old tiles were taken off, some of that wall material has been taken off as well, so everything had to be smoothed. After smoothing with some cement compound and waterproofing "mud" layer I measured the evenness of the walls. On 1 m of...

This is a rather novice question I admit, but I would appreciate some advise. My tiler has grouted the corner of the shower wall, and between the shower tray and the tiles. He also grouted into the ceiling. Is this ok from a waterproofing point of view? I feel uneasy as I thought that grout...

Hello all, Hoping that once again I can get some good advice on here, you were invaluable when I installed a new shower.. 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...

Hello and thanks for your time. When the shower metal frame (that will hold the glass wall) is placed plumb along the tiled wall, you can see that the tiled wall is uneven. The top and bottom touches the tile wall but in the middle there is a huge 2cm gap between the metal and wall. Basically...

Hi. I am going to be filing around a window which is very close (about 70mm to the adjacent wall. That wall next to it will be half tiled. My question is would it look best if I aim to run the grout line dead on the bottom of the window and stop the tiles on the other wall at that height or...

Hi there, long time lurker, first time poster. I’ve recently moved in to a new build property which looks like it was built on a late friday afternoon. I wasn’t keen on the bathroom tiles so decided to redo the whole bathroom walls and floors. After removing the bath wall tiles I noticed...

Hi, I recently had a contractor strip out and replace all the Mastik in my shower as it had failed. It was a very poor job and not colour matched. The new contractor did a good job, or appeared tom with a matched colour (Jasmine) but less than two months on it has completely failed, coming away...

Hi - we would very much appreciate some advice. In October 2020 we had a sole trader come in to rectify and redo some previous poor work in our bathroom. In the process he tiled two walls (the other walls are not tiled). One of those walls is the actual plaster wall and is believed to be fine...
