Hi,
We're in the process of renovating our kitchen and have chosen these tiles in 600mm square size: stonesuperstore.co.uk/p-357-black-starlight-quartz-tiles.aspx

Hi Guys,
Bit of advice, had a job when the customer wants over 65m2 of Porcelain laid into a garage floor, not a drama but what would you say about laying electric heating mesh under the whole lot? Is that likely to be a nightmare? Only ever done small areas?

Hello, my first post proper. I have a large extension to tile. The floorscreed has been poured over the wet underfloor heating loops, and has set nicely. My problem is that the finished screed level is just under 40mm lower than it should have been. I now have a choice of either somehow adding...
