Hi, l'm a new member Uk. My Ferm 550 (dont laugh) wet cutter blade seems angled (to the right ) in the bed, so cutting with the guide means the waste part of tile gets 'squeezed 'against the guide and blade so becomes impossible to push through so l finish up having to turn workpeice round or do...

Hello I have a 10mx4m pool (depth average 1.5m) which is now drained due to construction work. This pool was made in 2011 and is of good quality (no leaks etc). This is an inground pool which overflows into channels all four sides. Its middle east and lowest temp we have is 10C(though high is...

Would like recommendations for 300 x 600 (x10mm) porcelain tiles, on wall inside a walk-in shower enclosure, tiling directly onto tile backer board. DIY tiler with limited experience. I think I need a powder adhesive for this size tile, but it needs a long bucket life - had a mare using penny...

My fento 200 pads aren't what they once were, probably 12- 18 month old, time to replace? Or can you get an insert for the front section where the pressure goes from your knee cap. I know there are a few fento users on here ..

I put a thread on here last week about tiling on to wood and plastic (still not sure)... But the problem is i can not keep off the site, reading all the other threads!! I said to the wife i should have been a tiler, she replied get a life and get on with the tiling lol

I'm not normally one for sad stories or sharing those "empowering" sayings that are all over Facebook but just thought I'd share this story. You never know, that mess the Sparky left or the crap the Plasterer blobbed all over the floor may not seem so important. About 6 weeks ago our...

Holiday modes kicking in , headphones in, chilled beer and bright blue skies. Wot more could u want :). What u up to ?

Do you plan to fix tiles until retirement or are you planning to diversify or go down a different career path? Don't like the idea of being on my knees for another 40 years as it's already started taking its toll on me at 26. Ideally would like to be off the tools by 40. Would quite like to go...

Was on a regular site today. The only other trade in the house were the two sparks doing their second fix. Thought this summed their day up well: 7.30am: Apply hair gel and navy trousers. 8.30am: Tune site radio to Radio 1, even though another station is already on. 10.30am: Despite having a...

AND I WILL LOVE IT TMOZ! stop getting people down dan! ha

Can anyone tell me how long to expect a circular Rubi Diamond cutter to last in a wet cutter? I have done about 50 cuts on 60 x 60 porcelain floor tiles and it worked fine at first. But now I find it impossible to get a straight cut. Using the guide is impossible because the tile draws into the...

(Forgive the bad terminology as I’m not a tiler) but can anyone tell me the bucket life of Porcelanosa’s One-Flex ceramic grout? I would like to know what time there is to use the grout once it’s been mixed - once mixed up, how long before it becomes unusable? Many thanks for your help. Laura

The sun and a beer. Ah this is the life. :). Enjoy your weekend peeps.
