Hi all i am newish to the forum.
I am after some advise on the above tiles from topps tiles.
Will i be able to cut them with a big hand tile cutter or will i need an electric tile cutter with diamond blade.
I am not a professional but i have done all my own tiling in the past but never used tiles this thick and the misses wants them in the new bathroom. Most of the cuts will be simple.

Any help much appreciated
 
Hi

These tiles are the man made quartz style stuff which mimics granite and have 'glitter' in them? If so you'll need to wet cut them.

I always fix these with a 2 part adhesive too, but many tilers are happy not to bother going that far and have had no problems.

Personally I would also seal the Topps ones.
 
I have the Tile Giant version to fix later this week. It is a wet cut only and the recommendation is definitely a two part adhesive - I use Mapei's Grani-rapid (apparently that isnt a fast moving Gran)

Good luck

Chris
