Tool Prices

[connor17]

Hi,

I'm starting a tiling course in April and after the course I will need to purchase the correct tools so I can get started on some friends and family jobs.

Could anyone give me an idea how much it will cost for the tools to get me started?

Thanks

Hello,

I bought mine while I was on my course and it came to around £400. This included a wet and dry cutter, trowels, buckets, wash boy, spare cutting wheels, nips, rakes and the list goes on.
If you get stuck you could mail Darren or Tracey at North East Tiling Training as they sell a good range of tools through their website.

Good luck.

Eric.

I agree, the training centres usually have the right tools and at a good price. There's also ebay to get some bits and bobs from, apparently good offers on rubi cutters at the moment. Then there's Tradetiler.com Home and yorkshire tiling academy, tiling course , tiling courses , 5 day intensive tiling, tile training, also have a few tools in stock now too.

There's a similar thread here too : http://www.tilersforums.com/tiling-tools-advice/270-what-tools-should-i-buy.html

You should find that the course you are going to will be happy to talk you through different qualities of tools and where to get them, Most of them sell the tools now, just buy from them, prices should be good
