wet

I got a cheap wet saw after reading good reviews and the results are disappointing. It's a 750W Erbauer one and it leaves a lot of chipping. One of the biggest issues I have is with breaking the corners of my tiles. They are 300x600 and there's a lot of friction between them and the table. I...

Hi guys, I am after some advice. I am after a wet tile saw for some remodelling of my house. 2 bathrooms and a kitchen and hall way which I want to Victorian tile. And as I am a plumber I will probably use it occasionally on bathrooms when I cannot get hold of a Tiler. Thanks guys and gals...

Hello all, I'm due to start a wet room with a former. The room is having underfloor matting. Can someone give the correct procedure for each stage, and can I ditra over the former or am I going to lose my falls. I was going to cement board or similar up to the tray. Should I lay the underfloor...

I went to see a floor on Saturday. Roughly 12sqm of screed with wet UFH in a ground floor extension. The screed went down last week. The surface of the screed was very rough and I could scrape up parts of it into my hand (very sandy). I could see and feel spongy insulation, as some of it was...

I am building a wet room, I have settled on an GRP former and tiled floor however the question is what to grout with. Ordinary cement grout may be ok however it will be wet for much longer than on the wall and is porous. I am presuming that normal grout will mark with grease from feet etc and...

Hi, (first post so be kind!), I am a competent DIY'er and have done numerous kitchen and bathrooms refurbishments in my time, but the boss now wants a wet room!! typical! I wonder if I could pick your brains and experience on recommendations of tile backer board systems. There appears to be...

Hi I am about to build a small wetroom (900 x 1850) and will be using an AKW former. The question is what to put on the floor. The general suggestion is to use mosaics on the floor as it minimises the cutting by follow the fall. Many of the mosaics are made of natural stone which is, as they...

Title says it all really. Looking for something which stands at a decent height & has some sort of rail system ideally too. Advice appreciated please.

Good morning, Gents I'd really appreciate the advice of experienced members here. I've been doing a small barn conversion in Kent for myself for the past 7 years and it's still nowhere near complete. I think I probably have OCD and this is only getting worse. The footprint of the building is...

I finally bought one and I've been looking at them for years. You see; I like tools and especially really nice, well made tools. But I didn't think that I could justify spending the best part of £1000 on what effectively appeared to be just a small table top wet saw. So for the past several...

Apologies this is so long winded, but hopefully you're an understanding bunch & you'll stick with the novel and provide a straight opinion on this. I'm a competent DIY'er (ex-spark), but it's a while since I've done any DIY tiling at home. I'm now re-doing the kitchen floor/walls in a 1960’s...

it’s upstairs on a job, Not one I’ve seen before, these aren’t in the area they want tiling. wall has been took out in another area and exposed the system.

Hullo all! I’ve been impressed by the professional attitude of posters here so wonder if I might take some advice on my refurb project. It’s a 300m2 bungalow, mixed 60s/90s extension, solid floor. I’m a power wheelchair user and destroyed our old house hardwood floors in short order so am going...

Hi, I'm researching the best method of fixing a 8mm glass shower screen to a wet room floor. Is there an adhesive that will do the job to avoid any floor penetration? Any advice gratefully received.

Hi This is my first time posting so hope it is in the right place. I am renovating and old house and currently about to fit out a bathroom on the ground floor. The bathroom is currently in a bigger room and has 2 external walls and the other 2 walls will be partitioned to separate it from the...

Hi everyone, I'm looking for recommended Wet saw blades. Some for all round work, that leaves a good clean edge. Thanks Spencer

He guys, new to tiling and wondering how everyone else sets up. Whilst the weather is great I don't have an issue. Set up my table outside with dry and wet cutter on it so any spray from my wet cutter is easy to wash down, but wondering how I'm going to over come this issue when its poring down...

Looking around for a new cutter and would appreciate some recommendations. Is the dewalt 2400 still the best in class? Any others that are better value for money? Any other considerations or experiences very much appreciated

Does anyone know where I can pick 1 up off the shelf please
