Favoured Tiling Work

[GazTech]

What is your favourite type of tiling?...tiling since a lad I was always at my happiest when working with any natural product.The more complicated the better, given the choice it was always floors mainly (I suppose thats why I don't tile anymore as a proffession).Origional style Victorian reproduction stuff,old renovations,or complicated in and out walls with mitred corners,mosaics and stuff.Usually most tilers would not want the hassle of this kind of work, therefore I could always command a heafty fee.What about you lot still active????

good post gaz.. i'm always up for challenge , iv'e done all kinds of tiling over the years from basic to orignal syle stuff and always welcome new products and designs, as tile fixers we are always learning, give me domestic tiling any day over commercial as you get much nicer materials to work with.. dave...

I love doing floors, concrete ones at that, take half the time walls do and the money is just as good, keep them conservatories coming my way.

I'd have to go with flooring too, and as someone else said.. might have been Gaz, they can't fall off like a wall tile either, lol

I worked all over spain using Yeso as an adh, hotels, to renovation cortigos. I miss the simplicity of everything being down to how good you are with your eye. Wasnt all about products, everything is concrete. Get to work, go for it, get as much down as possible, perfect. I'm now in a world of Chemical overload, I try to keep up but hey, every time I speak to the lads at Topps, we have a new object to play with. Great, make my life a bit easier boys!!
But you cant resist, even if it means pulling my 3month old Utility room tiles to have a blast.
Wheres my Paint splash trim anyway? My daughter wants to be a pussycat doll!!

hate floors but thats where the money is, I like bathrooms the bigger the better with lots of complications to test me. Early days through not had a simple splashback to do yet

Love plain old floors that are big and long and can bring in the cash personally. Although the jobs that involve turning a room into a wet-room type affair always got me going too, although they don't always pay aswell as the big floors.

Although I don't even own a trowel these days.
