Bookmatch bathroom.

[Old Mod]

@GaryTheTiler and myself as some of you know have been working on some bookmatched bathrooms in Marble Arch, central London.
We fitted insulation boards, variopro UFH & latexed, then installed @Ray TT @ Porcel-Thin Calacatta Bookmatch 1200 x 600 x 4.8mm thin porcelain
This was a complete bathroom wrap walls and floors.
This hopefully shows the versatility of the product and bears little resemblance to the staircase I did earlier in the year.
All other products apart from the UFH and tiles were from @ISOMAT UK Adhesives, which I'll post about in a different thread.

Top class, quality work as always Marc. What colour grout and silicone are you using. I did a very pale grey bathroom a while ago and used Mapei 103 Moon White, would go very well with that

White hahaha
The four clips are holding in the removable bath panel. The grout used was Isomats, it takes a day or so for it to dry white, in fact, it becomes brilliant white.

Right can see it properly now that it's been grouted now on laptop, could make out clips so just assumed it wasn't…

PS Looks better on laptop but confirms that it's another classic

John, you're way to nice to be a tiler!
Back after the new year to tile the final bathroom, I'll take another photo then and hopefully it'll show how white this grout dries.
One of their grouts is described as a porcelain finish. It's their wet area grout, anti bacterial, water repellent and so on.
Dries with a sheen, for joints of 1-3mm

 

[John Benton]

They were 103% happy with the job

 

[Bill]

Lovely work as per the norm.

Are the mitred corners a tad on the sharp side though? (not the workmanship but the overall feel to the corners as in an aesthetic look?....if you know what I mean.)
