I did enjoy it. Bit too much. Being dared to down pints of Hobgoblin. Turned out to be quite........ a heavy beer to be playing games with.

Anyway, loose laying the last couple of full tile and a row of cuts. Got a pipe that i can't take out. Had cut round it. Not done round cuts with an angle grinder. Not bad for a first go but would anyone have done this differently?

put Silicon between iron and tile.
no grouting. iron. with hot and cold moves and risk tile breakage.
good work 😉

Yes! Got all my cuts done. Started laying them.

Also, found out now why they're called levelling clips. Nothing to do with lipping. Instead they show you where you flumped up the self "levelling" compound. Found a hump where i missed a bit of feathering. Higher than snowdon, but not quite as high a Ben Nevis. Hammer, chisel, fixed.

Question. Doing the skirting. Best way to finish it as its the bricks i'm sticking them to aren't flat. They're a bit......... rustic.

Could use trim but it will show every undulation in the wall..

Could use grout to fill in the gap but will show the exposed edge. Will still maybe looker neater thatn trim. Would use Silicon but what colour? The grout i'm using doesn't have a match.

Thoughts? (The one in the picture not yet been stuck)

if you cut a 1 cm lower.
and aligned bricks, you see the line of mortar, brick.
the view is much better. and you do not sealing against brick but in the grout line. compry?

Thanks for the tips everyone. Got it all grouted yesterday. Managed to do the whole floor in one mix.

Gave it a fine clean and mop up just now and gotta say i'm very happy with it.

Left the skirting for now until i can make the boxing for the ufh but i'll take @antonio's tips on board for lining it all up.

Still have some cleaning of pipe work and the siliconing to do, but thats for another day.

Thanks again for the tips guys its been a great help.
