Utility room back at the house I did the big porc job at. They've got enough tiles left over but because it's Monday I'm gonna just go hoover it, prime it and level it and go home!!
Got a splashy at end of week and I'm looking forward to it - I must be weird as I quite like splashbacks.

So I had a tight schedule over the next three days and what bloody happened first day on the job. My van which is only two years old in September broke, the ignition key won't turn to unlock the steering etc :mad:, so I can't get to and from job as I'd like. Van is stuck in customers driveway loaded to the gills. I'll have to wait until Wednesday evening and hopefully the job is finished to have it towed to the dealership because all my tools and materials are in the back of it :(
It always seems to happen at the worst time dosent it!


Here's a pic of the loaded van hopefully nobody will empty it on me :eek:

Used it a few weeks ago on a floor prior to self levelling and tiling. I just used a small roller rather than a 9" like you've got there Andy. Wear latex gloves as well.

Once it's dried don't worry that it can scratch off very easily, I was and rang Tilemaster and they said it was fine. They were the leveller right stuck like the proverbial.

I'm on with an on-going project at moment, a purpose built garage for super car storage. I'll post pictures once basement level is complete and we have cars in situ, apparently there will be Ferraris, Lambos and Porsche on this level, can't wait :)
