Afetr being in IT for (lots of years) and being slagged off by my peers and collegue , who were scared id move on faster than them. By competitors who tried to win my business I was glad to be made redundant whne the company went bust.

So I chose to be a tiler went on a course (I had tiled many times before for friends and family). Then I joined this forum.

SO far ive had hods of advice free of charge from complete strangers even in my area. Ive even had a local well established tiler visit me show me his work , come with my on jobs to help quote and give me more help in a few weeks than I had in a lifetime of IT.

Id urge any new guys to ask the daft questions , the only stupid question is the one that wasnt asked.

Not enough space to list all the people whove messaged me help but
TimelessJohn youre man of the Month for me mate :8:

I mix with all the trades and genuinely find the tilers (ref peeps here) to be the most open, friendly and helpful. Professionals happily giving DIYers help for no financial reward, and professionals advising and helping other professionals who could even be viewed as competitors! I have only observed benefits: forum prof tilers physically doing jobs together, DIYers getting the profs in before they really scramble up or completing their projects with your advice. The trade of tiling setting is reflected in a massively positive light here. I have many books on tiling, wall and floor construction and have done a fair bit myself, but learn something new every time I log on here. Thank-you forum peeps.
