Are you asking which trowel to use? Or how to lay out the tiles?

How is the ply fixed down, cant see from the pic.

Thanks for respond guys ! I watch this forum for a while 🙂 so i'm not new 🙂
Anyway Hi to everybody !


I'm not worried about floor, because is laid by pro carpenter.
only i'm not sure about how to spread the tiles in the room. I mean from right to left I've got easy, becouse I'll start with whole one tile on the right, and the tile on the left will be cut off around 30/40 mm.
The problem is... Should I start with whole tile on the front and cut tile in the far end of room to size around 150 mm?
Or should I find the center of the room and lay tiles from there ?


Sorry for my language 🙁

I like to centre things personally Furtek. how square is the room? woul have left the bottom course of wall tiles of before Tiling floor but thats me.

Only asked about the floor as Im guessing its 9mm ply and I cant see what its fixed with from the pic or I cant see an expansion gap around the perimiter.
