    UK Question about tile sizes

    Matching grout lines isn’t an issue with different sized tiles . On the feature wall centralise left to right and top to bottom. Creates a better feature if it’s symmetrical.

    Limestone floor restoration

    I use a red pad. But white work as well. Doesn’t take much to agitate and lift the much and grimex cleans grout as well. If it’s just a small floor just clean by hand. With scotch pads.

    Limestone floor restoration

    Hi Ali. My go to cleaner is Ltp Grimex and is pretty good on limestone when it heavily pitted like that. Ltp do another cleaner as well but not as strong as grimex. I tend to use my buffing machine work mixture in and then rinse/neutralise and clean up with a wet vac.

    I also fit loads as a comp i subby too use them lol.. I wont fit them brickbond either and otherwise as you say spacing and grout disguises the poor tile sizing to a degree. I have some pics of truly unacceptable glaze issue somewhere , I'll upload them.

    British Ceramic Tiles - They actually want our feedback

    BCT's quality control is abismal to say the least. I have complained direct on they're FB page and they tried to reply via messenger and not in the post i posted.
