Starting a new job in the New Year (Non Tiling)

[Saltire69]

Thats good going m8,is that including the floor?If all the walls are sound then try and tile the bathroom in one day if u can and then grout up and do the floor the second day.I know some tilers grout walls at night that they tiled in the day but few admit to it.I did a bathroom today just got window to go round in morning and shower wall to tile so i will be back on Saturday grouting and fixing floor.

Nah that was just walls m8.Was taking me 5 days before cause i was bricking maself when I 1st started out.

Full time tiler since late 2007, but tiling since March 2007. Left my old desk job to pursue a better career and earnings after the birth of my little lad.

Just remember to not leave your job until you have got a few good jobs under your belt and a list of happy customers, and contacts.

Alot of newby tilers think advertising in our local paper will bring in all he work, and it does't work like that all the time - if it did we'd all be rich!!!!!!!
