Show Us YOUR Work Thread - Tilers Pictures

Edit May 2024: THIS is a New Show Us Your Work Thread for 2024 Onwards

This is the new Tilers Showcase Forum where we want new tiling work added, with each tiling job you complete having a thread of its own so people can see what kind of work you do, and potential customers can find your work

I thought it was about time we had a thread dedicated to all members of Tilers forums to show us any work that they do.

Be it from installing a kitchen to garden decking. Show us your work! Get those pictures taken, but then do something with them! Actually add them to a thread and some facebook groups with your website link in them etc and it'll help spread the tile love.

If you have done a job then please do share it with us.

Pics are a MUST as what is the point of sharing a job without them..:smilewinkgrin:.

So if you do a job and you take a few pics then please do share it with us.

Lets make it a big thread for all to view and input in.

Thanks Dave ..

Yes, there are so many finishes to learn, impractising is the shiny one you see above(classico) i find this the most appealing. So what you see above is 2 x coats of carrera marble (slightly grainy) than another 5 or 6 classico (consistency of paint) then 2 coats of bees wax then 1 or 2 coats of parraffine wax.

I wont hide the fact i obviously started this via short course but i am not disillusioned like so many others who instantly errected a venetian marble specialist website with regurgitated pics of anciant itally as if it could even remotely be there own work, all websites are done by the same guy at the same place you get the training so they all kinda look the same lol. Och, if your passionate about something then i cant knock that but looking at some of the content on these websites who are apparently pros at venetion marble then i really do worry about there sanity!!... sorry getting side tracked, BC, id say do the course if you want it in your own house then take it from ther mate, you can get some pretty decent results using the autherntic gear from italy but it from my own pov, i can only be a master of one trade hopefully one day, i dont have the energy or enthusiasm for this one too, if a job comes along then i take it on but tiling is my bread and butter and also my passion

finished my solnhofner platten kitchen and entrance today. i like the contrast from the black shiny kitchen front. so the toilet gets black nero assoluto optik tiles i think that fits great to the entrance.









now i start the bathroom planing of this house. customers want a stone like basaltina. grey in concrete optik. i searcht in internet and fund irish carlow stone. anybody know prices or has expierence with this stone? there is only one impoteur in germany and they ignore my inquiry until yet.
i need big massiv peaces of it too.

Nice work Rainsco, very nice.

 

[jonnyc]

Good looking floor rainsco.
How much does that solnhofner cost which was in herribone pattern in photo per sq mt.itbused to be very good value for money.
I have fixed Irish blue limestone which I think was from Carlow one time over in s.ireland.
I will make a couple of calls to someone I know tomorrow row.
What size format,finish and quantity are you looking at

Nice work Richard! Did you re board all the walls?my only criticism is I would have centered the window,and not overkeen on tile trim with travertine!
Apart from that it looks good mate!!

 

[thompsonbrown]

i know what you mean with the window and it is the first thing you see walking in the room. but if you look at the tiling in the wetroom everything was centered from there i felt using the offcut to carry round the wall would get away from all the tiles in the corners being different shades of travertine. you can't see inside the recess but that was all 1 tile. maybe a oak window cill might of helped. but do agree with you about tile trim's customer wanted them. here's a picture of me not using trims
