- Hi, Im tiling the bottom third of the bathroom wall in a straight herringbone (where the tiles are horizontal and vertical rather than on a 45 degree).

Also I need to go around a window reveal and a internal corner so wondering how the pattern carries on around these types of corners. The tiles im using are 300×100 so theres 3 vertical tiles […]

- Please advise me on a sealer or two. I've had white porcelain tiles with light grey grout laid for 4/5 months & the grout had darkened & the tiles are difficult to clean. Once sealed, I do plan on getting a kitchen runner. I read a review on Amazon for LTP H20 sealer & the image left me worried. There is the spirit/solvent based one but I'd rather use a water based one if possible, but would consider solvent. I've also been looking at Tile Doctor Ultra Seal but can't find any reviews, & also Lithofin sealers. I may use […]

- Hi everyone, I'm not a regular tiler, just someone who is trying to fix up a few rooms around the house. I have a little bit of experience though, as I tiled my bathroom a few years back with a friend's cutter. I recently bought a Rubi HIT850N as it was a large cutter and on offer. Unfortunately, I noticed during cutting that the scored line deviates approx. 2 mm over the length of a 60 cm tile. I checked all the cuts I made, and this was not a one off. In addition, looking at the top rubber section […]

- We had a wet room fitted by a large company. We have issues with a few large steps where the gradient isn’t smooth so you can stump your toe. They sent a wet room fitter round to report, but the first 2 were general bathroom fitters who didn’t know about wet rooms. One even attempted to grind down the tiles causing damaged to the top of some of the mosaic tiles. Finally when the 3rd fitter came who was a wet room fitter they also pointed out two deep foot indentations where the fitter stood to fit the shower whist […]
