Top job phil... what colour grout is to be used..?

 

[The Legend; Phil Hobson RIP]

Thanks Dave, cement/mid grey by Norcross, I used that because it is very fine (tight joints)

Lovely job Phil, you must get real satisfaction doing work like that

Thanks John, yes I do enjoy it, sometimes is a bit tricky getting things to look symmetrical.

You have to work within the parameters of the room, which can be time consuming, and sometimes when you can't get it perfect, you have to go with what suits the eye best. I actually like the setting out, and customers like to see you taking time and care over how the finished job will look before you've even started. There's no doubting to me that setting out is one of the most important parts of the job.

You are so right John, I think setting out can make or break a job. I find with this type of border it helps to dry lay sections, to avoid double headers.

what I've been up to for the last few days what do you think of the tiles wasn't sure at first but it took two days to get em up the window was time consuming, still got the floor to do in the cheap black tiles from b&q you know the ones :mad2: and the pelmets , cornice and plinths.

Great work mate. Wouldn't like that on a hangover. What customer wants, customer gets.

Anyone for chess?
