Show Us YOUR Work Thread - Tilers Pictures

[Dave]

Edit May 2024: THIS is a New Show Us Your Work Thread for 2024 Onwards

This is the new Tilers Showcase Forum where we want new tiling work added, with each tiling job you complete having a thread of its own so people can see what kind of work you do, and potential customers can find your work

---

I thought it was about time we had a thread dedicated to all members of Tilers forums to show us any work that they do.

Be it from installing a kitchen to garden decking. Show us your work! Get those pictures taken, but then do something with them! Actually add them to a thread and some facebook groups with your website link in them etc and it'll help spread the tile love.

If you have done a job then please do share it with us.

Pics are a MUST as what is the point of sharing a job without them..:smilewinkgrin:.

So if you do a job and you take a few pics then please do share it with us.

Lets make it a big thread for all to view and input in.

Thanks Dave ..

hi rainsco, I'm a real perfectionist and could probably walk in to any job and be able to pick faults but with your work I really can't see any, never seen tiling with such precision. Very top class work!

Medium size floor l done a few months ago, 60 x 60 porcs with UFH. Anyway, ended up a bit tricky because I made slight error when self levelling over the heating mat, the slc at one point was a few mm higher than the rest (must have missed when troweling) so I had to start at the high point very thin and set the plane, worked out well In the end and was fairly pleased. Grouted up in mapei 112 with dried slightly patchy (unhappy about this, customer never said anything) ...we live and learn eh.

 

[Mr Tiler]

is that 2mm spacers on the floor mate?

 

[AliGage]

Doesn't look like it. Looks more like 4 to me.

 

[rainsco]

had a few resttiles from a projekt and tried to make my first washing basin from. i can sell it to the customer with the verde savanna wc and bathroom (jotm august) if it gets good. first i want to glue it but then i want radii on the corners. so i glued 4 tiles i cut out before with epoxy and coverd it with 1 and make a miterglue.. then i go with my new shower tray miller. now tomorrow i have to sand it until grid 200 and make the armature hole. .. i think about weeks how can i build this basin. and until now it works fine. the new machine is so much fun.. look at the last photo my new fisher trousers. best invest! no more water in shoes!

[rainsco]

[Mr Tiler]

whats that mate a sink? your not over here are ya?

 

[charlie1]

is that 2mm spacers on the floor mate?

no mr t, 3mm on this one. I have done many floors with 2 mm joint but usually small ones. Tiles where spot on, a blind man would have done a decent job with these

My current job, a couple of days left before I finish. Border tiles are just dry laid for now.

Question phill, what do you do first, the border or the field tiles. I spoke to tiler I know recently who said he does border first which I thought slightly strange... Could not fault his work Though so took his word on it

another stone job in 2014. two bathrooms and a floor. import the stone from a quarry 150km away. get a car and drive 2 times. 3,5t material..

i parted the bathroom in 12 parts. so there are floor tiles in 105x105x2cm. i was on the limit alone. the customer wants to have the tiles on same level as the render so i cut it out. the wall stone is only 1,3cm thick and that was really stress to get them not broken.

1 of the long pieces broke but i glued it on the wall and sanded it. i´m has luck, its getting perfect.
its a crazy job. i was really fear of it.
