Wetroom floor with 600x300

[Ian]

I hate it when architects, or customers for that matter, dictate the setting out! You do your job, I'll do mine!!!

Does my head in too mate! What made me laugh the most was they had detailed drawings of where they wanted every tile placing but couldn't manage to order the correct amount! I had a quite heated discussion with her when she said I'd obviously wasted tiles, I replied by saying that on HER drawing there were 105 tiles and you've ordered 90! Some tiles were 40% waste due to centring, this hadn't been taken into account when ordering! This is what happens when people interfere with our job.

This is a linear drain with 600x300 tiles I've just finished.
This was made easy for tiling because I used a 1200x1200 tray

I've not done a linear drain yet, but I do like the look.. How do they compare, price wise, to your average former? Just curious, but what's the reason for the cut-back plinth on the bath? LED's?

Nice job by the way... 😉

Thanks Beans and well spotted with cut-back plinth, if you look at the pic you can see a wire for the strip lighting.

Nice zooming..
You also asked about price.
I only use impey and the price for linear drains are expensive. around double the cost of a square drain.

Like the start point of your linear drain.
My last one I tried to get it right in the corner of the tile, but after 2 bad attempts allowed about 3mm like your-self

Once grouted (beige) it wasn't an eyesore.
Corners chipped too easily on this porcelain so it was a safe compromise.
