    95sqm onto screed with water based UFH - recommendations?

    Hi all, Not been on here for a very long time, kind of dropped out of the tiling business for a while preferring to work with wood and get tilers in on kitchen & bathroom fits, but either way, I'd be out of my depth on this one, and the customer is the missus. Large extension with screed that...

    Where does excess water go in tanked system?

    Hi All, Fantastic forum, but I couldn't find an answer for the question above. As no grout and adhesive is waterproof (is water resistant - stays as it is and doesn't disintegrate) it will eventually let water in and cause the damage (like in my case: tiles on the plasterboard not tanked)...

    Can you stick Porcelain Tiles over Heated Water Pipes?

    Hi, I have no idea if this is acceptable or not but I have just realised when touching the floor of the bathroom it does feel warm in places so I assume there must be hot water pipes running quite close beneath the flooring. There is a hot towel rail in the bathroom which is always on night...

    Need a new Dewalt water pump - any ideas?

    I've had my DW2400 for 2 years and it's always had a weak pump. I keep it clean - always in a bucket using fresh water rather than in the table, but it's always been inconsistent with it's power. Ideally it's just enough to cool the blade but more and more recently it's barely a dribble out of...

    Metal Trims and Hard Water

    I've just had a client ask are metal tile trims (such as the polished aluminium ones) affected by hard water? We're in the South East, Folkestone. Can they be cleaned effectively and easily? Do they attract limescale more than the plastic ones? Do they discolour? I didn't know what to say as...

Tiles on the walls are 15x15cm, only around the bath, on the floor marble mosaic. our tiler thinks that occasional shower is not going to affect the walls which are plastered.
