Hi I need a tiler for a specialist job, I’ve seen a few posts here from people with experience doing this kind of thing. My builder can’t find someone to subcontract this to, rather late in the day.
Job is to tile approximately 2.5m2 area of sloping ceiling above bath. The tiles are white Vietnamese crystal marble - “opulent” from Topps Tiles. The substrate as it stands is probably not suitable; he’s put a plaster skim onto aquapanel, then there’s plywood 12mm, screwed into ceiling joists.
There are plenty of adhesives that are both water resistant and really strong - stronger than the tile, so I don’t see the problem other than his tilers have never done it before.
Anyway if you have experience with this kind of job and would like to quote please let me know. Job is in N2 East Finchley / Muswell Hill, London
