Here's an idea for you, I said.......

[kilty55]

its the type of extra mile that should bring you lots of reccomendations...i like it

Classy Daz...just hope the customer appreciates the work involved.

Thanks everyone.

The mosaics are 10mm thick Oli.
This is the kit that I used, plus a 100 grit diamond pad...

.

To be fair, I suggested it to the client and then profiled a mosaic "off cut" to prove the finish. The client was instantly impressed and prepared to pay for my time to do it. As for the timescale, it didn't actually take much longer to do in the grand scheme. I reckon the access panel, fully tiled bath panel and tiled boxing to hide the pipes behind the basin pedestal took longer :smilewinkgrin: :incazzato:.

Cheers,

Daz

[Daz]

Daz thats 1 class finish, so much more nice than using a tile trim.

 

[paul78]

Im an amateur compared to you guys doing stuff like that, love to learn it though is it a case of getting a kit and a few tiles to play with...

 

[Qwerty]

Lovely work Daz :drool5:. Spot on with the setting out too A real shame more people dont want profiled stone.....I keep saying it, but I really have got to pull my finger out and place my order with stone tools

Paul,
Without wanting to sound condescending, I think a lot is to do with your current skill levels and confidence.
If you know a friendly tiler local to you who has the equipment and is prepared to assist you with your learning, then I would explore that route first. I, personally, had the confidence and experience to invest into the equipment and practice until I was able to offer the service to my clients.

Good luck,

Daz

[mz30]

I laid a board across them, and applied my weight, to keep them stable Mike.

I usally use G-clamp's and a straight edge to hold them in place.

I got my equipment from Stonetools. Take a look at their website, it may inspire you.

Good luck,

Daz

I've got a PM written that I sent to a couple of members with all the individual parts of the kit listed with prices, that I can forward to anyone who wants it. Send me a PM if interested. (it'll be tomorrow when I reply, on the phone at the mo)

Hi daz,nice work, never seen that sort of corner profile down here in NZ, have you had those made, done them your self, or are they available ex stock.

Either way nice work

Thanks Astute,

I did the profiling myself. Since doing the job and showing a few potential clients the pics I have booked 2 more jobs for the profiling, so happy days.
