Yeah i saw, my question was more for confirmation than anything else.

Are you going to be tiling his yourself? I cant remeber if you had got someone lined up to do it.

Right now will be doing myself, will do a little en-suite first to see how I get on. I figure if a small room like that doesnt work out then no harm done really, and I'll get someone in. If it works ok I'll move onto the next.

Ok thats cool. Ambitious but cool. You know where to come if you get stuck! Dry lay as much as you can first and that way you can do your cuts as you go, or alternativley you can just lay the full tiles in one hit and do the cuts after its dry.

use rapid set addy for the marble , it eliminates the chance of moisture staining the marble

I am using Keraflex + Latex Plus for the Marble. I'll take that chance.

Thats what your forum sponsor (Tile Giant) advised me to do when tiling onto chipboard. Also, Mapei confirms this is the exact adhesive and latex to use onto chipboard too. Obviously now I'll have no more ply on top.

[kevg]

My head is buzzing. Will need to take a day or 2 break from it.

 

[Gazzatile]

Some very good sound advice here hope the jobs goes well

I've forgot about the grout being flexable too for the marble tiles, I take it, with the Mapei Jasmine grout, I can just use Latex Plus instead of water ?

 

[Scott]

Did you get the ultracolour plus? If you did then thats already flexible
