Time's Ran Out

Good evening - Smurf21.
With 25 years of experience you will have no problem with Original Style tiles.
They have a design department to which you can send them your room size, design and border and they work it out for you! And send you a drawing.
But I've never used it.
From their brochure it gives you all the sizes if individual tiles and border widths so its pretty straightforward to count the number of tiles you need.
Then get the individual price of each piece sit down with a cup of tea and total it all up.
Charge your daily rate for about 3sq metres a day and you wont be far away.
Me - I've got a book on old english designs -same patterns different names -and I buy 100x100mm tiles and cut the lot by hand.
Last weeks job - JOB OF THE MONTH (May) was done this way.
As has been stated no more money,but not as hard work and definetly more satisfaction.:thumbsup:
John.
