"Sniff , Sniff" you've all hurt me bad! :) Dry laying is the method they use to teach you at PTS as it goes. The room was only 3 sqm. Dry layed because i offered to put a 3 diamond pattern in the floor for the customer and was showing them where it would fit in. As the tiles were down i worked from them for my cuts. Customer didn't even go for the pattern in the end. Thanks btw kapitan. DAMN U B&Q!!!!!!!:)

leatherface no professional tiler i know marks out small domestic bathrooms with datums and staffs!! its all down to personal choice but imo you are using a sledgehammer to crack a nut! i used staffs etc, when i worked in the commercial sector but now 90% of my work is domestic bathroom refitting and i can lay out a bathroom in minutes accurately and know exactly where every cut is going and i must have tiled over 1000 bathrooms!! im not knocking your way m8 just pointing out that you use whatever works best for you!! and wivers theres not a tiler in the land who hasnt done that m8!!!!


Small bathroom floors no - but walls Yes - no matter how small - takes me a matter of minutes. It is the way I set out. happy with it.
Anyways as lonfg as the end result is ok who cares ? :)

No offence meant 2 anyone - sos wivers.
That's what the forum is all about - discussion.
Still done in a polite & friendly manner I hope :)

Wivers, just out of curiosity - how do PTS teach people how to set out a large continuous floor in multilpe rooms - say 5 rooms for example ?
