Large project advice please

[samlwind]

Thanks for your responses...any other advice on score and snap cutters?

The new Rubi TZ is a great cutter, see if you can hire one, a grinder with a good
porcelain blade for your L cuts but 800x800 is not something for an amateur.
As you have a wet saw already why not just use that.

That rubi tz looks perfect. The wet cutter I have will take much longer but will do the job.
I know these 80x80s will be a challenge but I have done 50x50 for someone before in a big kitchen.
This is my home so I hope without the pressure of having to earn a decent price out of it I can take my time etc
I am going to use one of these wedge levelling knock off systems if anyone could recommend one?

Have a look at Raimondi RLS levelling system, used this system recently, (first time using a levelling system). Had no issues with it, simple to use , once you got a handle on the wedge tension.

Oh, and the clips snapped off nicely.

If you want a concrete look why not use concrete?

If you ise the pliers and set them it will make it easier and quicker.

Thanks again for your help everyone.

Basically I had a bungalow on a hill and have built a 3 storey extension in front of it. It's been a massive undertaking and very complicated. Access is really limited and I can't get deliveries to the site. Including concrete. So hence the tiles.

I'm inclined to agree with Ajax123; for such a large area instead of concrete effect/look tiles just wet pour the whole area with concrete then polish it!
Why spend circa £6k + on tiles to look like something when you can have the real thing.........half the cost!
