These bathrooms are lovely can I ask a question tho.. I can see you have angled "cuts" in the fall to the drainage... How was this atchieved and how much slope do you put on it?... Thanks mate some nice tiling there!

that is called a shower envelope.....and the falls are either preset or I think its 1-20.........oh and it is achieved with a cutter......and a few years of trial and error, not to mention a bit of luck!!!!!!.....give it a go!

all the best......GET SOME NUTS!

I was over in Meopham again today..........it is really difficult work.....not because of the tiles or anything, but because of the work that has been completed by other contractors.....


for instance there is a hole in the wall where an LCD TV is due to go........I asked the client ages ago "where is the TV and bracket?" ...and the reply was "its on order"........" i cut the hole from the diagram online!"...


Well, the TV arrived today......after I had tiled the wall......and guess what................IT DONT FIT!!!!!!!!!!!!..........so I had to pull the tiles off and clean the wall up!!!!!!.......ARRRRGGGHHHHH......


that is just one of the many debacles of this self builder!!!!!!..............any way...this is what went on:

I started with the bath surround.........and yes it has holes everywhere......and the holes fall on the edges of the tiles.....not usually a problem but in this case the "shroud" of the lights is 2mm bigger than the hole!!!!


oh well......


now that is done I can continue the wall tiling.......after a box is installed for the heated towel rail.......(it was just a wire poking out of a hole earlier!......could have been another LED!).....but luckily I double checked!
