i have almost finished my first job for my gran after finishing my training course, it has when really well and i overcome the problems of the uneven walls with easy as the training covered every problem that you may come accross - i didnt get paid for the job but it has been great experience for me and i have now decided that i do want to do this as a career!!! all i have left to do is grout the tiles and once i have done that i will try and work out how to upload the photos of it so you can see my work as i am proud of it. By Eric -- trained at NORTH EAST TILING.
I have done the full job with 1 trowel, 1 wet cutter, spirit level, ceramic tiles, 2 tubes of adisive, some edge beading, spacers, tub of grout, small grout spreader, silicon and silicon gun and lots of effert on my part.

2 questions ?
What is that thck white strip above worktop?
Is that a split cut around the single switch to the left of the cooker ?

the white strip on worktop is a bench edge the gran wanted fitted so it had a water tight finish incase of any spillages on the bench ...

yes it is a split cut because i could not take the main cooker plug out, i got it off the wall but had to split the tile to get it on the wall if you know what i mean.
