Kitchen work tops

[Alison]

Ah so some of you lads like it on top, while others dont, both options seem to have advantages, so I think I will flip a coin on this one. Thanks for everyone giving their time.

Ohh, I like it with grout and Silicon, or without grout but on top, or with both and from behind 😛

sealant,sealant,sealant....... ever seen worktops 'blow' because water has seeped under the tiles. Happens all to frequently.

I,ve always tiled straight of the worktop, done it like that for 20 odd years and NEVER had an issue with movement. You might occasionally want to use a spacer if it brings the level up to work better around a window, but otherwise no.

yup same here, only time i would use pins or carbourd even is if the work top was offlevel
