Knee pads - recommendations?

[grassyknoll]

It occurs to me that as I'll be spending quite some time on my knees for this wetroom project, that kneepads would be a good idea. I thought kneepads were just kneepads, but I find that there are several types/materials/shapes. Any of you tilers use 'em? Any you recommend?

Alpro are very good, but if it's just a one off project probably a bit pricey. i've been recommending them to my joiner and building colleagues and they have all gone and bought them after trying mine. i got mine from tradetiler.com.

I would look at Tradetiler.com Home for a good type. I prefer the kneeling cushion myself .

Can't add more to the above posts. TradeTiler.com is the man.

Just checked out Tradetiler and as you say, the red ones are pricey. Might be worth it though 'cos I daresay the job will take me much longer to complete than it would a pro and might help my dodgy knee (smashed the cartilege a few years back - fell off the bath ...)

Tradetiler looks a good site. Will give it a browse.

Thanks all for your help

Look after your knees and after 36 years of tiling you'll still be able to walk.

Oh by the way- I use 36dd that the wife grew out of and they are stitched into my overalls.
