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 ..

A 17th Century cottage in sleepy Dorset undergoing a kitchen re-vamp where they have knocked through an old wall into a hidden room (had been blocked off for close to a century!). Called in to sort the slate floor. The original Chinese slate floor was fitted around 10 years ago (some of it over lino floor ). Had difficulty sourcing chinese multicolour slate to exactly match the existing, but got it pretty close in the end. Returning next month once builders & sparkys finished to clean off old tiles and re-seal. New screed poured so that was alright but the old floor was bad........really bad! (anti-fracture membrane under tiles due to cracks & joins)

Pics a bit disjointed as uploading from my phone....sorry!

Nothing special Im afraid, but time consuming and bang on all the same

Alright fellas just though I'd share this bathroom it is 600x300 slate from Porcelanosa some lovely colours in them and nice to use they were not as heavy or as hard as normal slate, just the normal quality stuff from Porcelanosa

Currently tiling the bar area of an 8 million quid mansion in gleneagles. Anyway, I have lots of work to do in this house but though id share these pics as it was quite unusual problem i had to overcome, the inner cuts to the bar where no problem using templates but to do the outer cuts, i had to make a jig woth wood and some wheels to ensure it workes smooth (will post pic) then i cut with angle grinder then profiled with diamond pad.

you make me glad I use ring saws! curved cuts are easy- new trick I figured out when trying to fit tricky pieces or notch around something- put one or many rows of clear packing tape over shape/area cutting into- draw cut lines needed on it- pull off and stick on piece getting cut- instant cut pattern transfer. (cut with tape on tile)

For job above- you'd run a few rows over the first cut line on 1 or more tiles at a time- trace cut with fine tip sharpie -measure and mark on the tile cutting in- where the cut enters and exist each particular tile- lift tape and line up ends to those marks- shape is instantly and precisely transferred.

maybe you all knew this already...

Nice Tony!

Here's a few pictures of my current project. Very small bathroom. A traditional style install, crackle glaze tiles, will be a nice cast iron radiator going in next week sometime as well.

I've just completed this bathroom today after getting the floor done and fitted the cast iron radiator. You can views these on my face book page (link in my signature) or on my website Kitchen and Bathrooms fitted in Peterborough

First class job Ali. Have you mitred around the window?

 

[AliGage]

Yes mate, was a bit tricky getting the cut really neat with the tile being crackle glaze. But it came out ok.

Excellent work Janna, I have just been admiring it on the John Bridge's forum.
