As above, Pythagorus is your friend.
I always find my preferred datum and "3,4,5" from that.
If it's a small area then just dry lay a few tiles.

that's the one. though a tile laser is a bit quicker

laser aint any good on a big floor i tend to use 4.2 5.6 7 mts and string for my centre as if your floor is 70ts long the laser dot is a bit large or faint

Same as above but I always find dry laying a few from centre of the door and using your eye has never failed me,your eye doesn't lie

I'm about to do our conservatory and am seriously thinking of setting the first few tiles out with a square, then screwing battens into the floor and tiling up to them from one side to get some perfect lines.

No it's not got ufh :lol:

3,4,5 Never lies!
