Bathroom start to finish

[macten]

End of second day on a new bathroom job

 

[macten]

Tiles are rectified 60x60 floor and 60x30 wall and the sizing is spot on and the room allows for joints to match up without silly compromises. I can count on one hand how many times that's happened for me.
So today set out walls on the vertical to get my floor set out and got them fixed.

Nice job macten! That bath is going nowhere. Lost count of the amount of times I have walked into someone else's work and the bath isn't strapped.

The one I took out had nothing, no battens, no Silicon and not even those useless little wall brackets that sometimes get supplied.

"Overboard floor and set dots and rails"

Whats a dots and rails then macten? 😉

It's a method of damming off and setting a datum all in one prior to self levelling. A good spirit level or laser to set the dots at the correct height (I use packers for the dots stuck down with rapid set) and mortar mix for the rails (use a wet straight edge):

That’s the best way imo to get a deep pour level in one mix.

I used this gear for the first time last week and I have to say it was excellent. Superb flow/levelling and set extreamly hard.
