Hi all
I’m new to this community and would appreciate any help around the tile industry in the uk and margins at each step (manufacturer-distributor-retailer)
I’m asking this as I have an opportunity in relation to becoming a distributor for a well established tile manufacturer from abroad...
I have a bathroom just now that's half height tiles above the bath. I am changing the bath and also fitting a shower mixer, bath will be switched around and shower mixer will go on the left wall.
So I am going to continue the tiling to the ceiling for the shower area in the bath.
Please see...
I’m just planning specifics for tiling our kitchen. We have a stainless splash back behind our hob which we intend to keep, but want to tile the rest of the way around the kitchen between the underside of the cupboards and the upstand from the worktop.
I would normally plan to set out by...
Hi,
I’m about to start a shower room job. I’m using 1200mm x200mm tiles vertically. So it will only be 2 high each row.
What’s the best way to start. If the tiles were smaller I would use a baton to get my level but wiith only 2 high, not sure the best way to start. Should I use a baton and...
I attempted my first tiling job a few days ago in my downstairs bathroom. It took me around 8 hours to get to this point. The day after I came back to remove all the tile leveling clip wedges. I was left with a couple that I couldn't get out, and I also had a lot of adhesive in my grout lines...
I thought there was a new thread in the Tilers Arms that explains how to access the british standards for free now? I have a copy of it somewhere, but I wanted other forums of ours to have access to them too. So trying to create a thread in their arms. But can't find the thread in ours!
Can...
when my quarry tile is wet the water beads in only some areas. when the tile is dry it looks blotchy....matt finish vs satin finish (where the sealant still is). I have sanded, stripped, etc. and the remaining sealant will not come off. I scraped with a razor blade and nothing happens. Can...

I have found a few tiles that I actually quite like but no idea how old they are or where they are from and wondered on the off chance of anyone recognised them?
I have attached photos of the front and back - could they be British Ceramic?
Okay, so we've upgraded the forum, we've changed domain name from .co.uk to .com. We've got a couple of tags to encourage members to post really good content, and those seem to be working. We've changed the name of the TilersForums Arms tag to Tilers' Arms Tag. We've added country flags to post...
So, I've removed all the tiles and plasterboard to find I can't reboard as the studs won't be correctly located on the 'back' wall. Advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hi, some of the tiles in the kitchen, landing and bathrooms have grout that that loosened and fallen out and tiles are popping in various places. Mostly where the underfloor heating pipes are. Under tile is concrete.
We ripped some of the tiles out and re laid again. However the issue is still...
A friend of mine just moved in to a council flat and has these tiles in his bathroom but wants them in his kitchen as well but can't find them any where, they are just under 20" x 20"
(I apologise about the poor quality of the photos)
In the videos I've been watching about how to lay a tile properly they advocate sliding the tile perpendicular to the run of the adhesive grooves onthe floor. This collapse the channels and provides better contact etc.
When the trowel is 20mm (the height seems to be 15mm the width 20mm) the...
Does anyone buy decent paint roller heads in quantity I can't seem to get hold of them locally without paying a lot for them, some times it's cheaper to buy a new tray and frame. I use them a fair bit for taking, priming etc
