Alright boys and girls, hope everyone has had a good weekend and not too many of us have been working straight through!
Anyways I'll maker this quick, starting a job tuesday for a local builders, never worked for them before and would like to showcase my talents somewhat! My name got recommended to them already so a good first impression to build on. The job is a bathroom and shower area in a fairly top end rental flat. Tiles are ceramic white ripple jobs. Cant stand them. I'm not gonna rant but I really really do hate them. Anyways it's a top place so want it to be good. Hate trims, I've been trying to mitre everything I can lately, think it's nearly as quick provided the prep is done spot on.
The shower area has been built by sticking a wedi'd stud partition in the corner of the room. The width of the wall is probably about 200mm wide and obviously where it ends in the middle of the room there is a 200 mm wide face to tile. That is a terrible explanation but even that took me ages, struggling tonight!! Anyway i would want to mitre both edges, obviously, but the tiles are 250mm at narrowest. So one side will have to be a mitre on a cut edge. Isn't that gonna look really naff? I mean just look a bit shoddy? And also it should be pretty sharp as well so that's probably not a good thing either.
Anyone got any advice or pointers or anything that can help me out? Would be much appreciated
