You can allways go for Porcel-Thin 600x1200...

Or even some 2000x200x6, think some SLS clips on these planks

Christ do they really exist that large?!

I always use them with porcelain planks now with a broken bond. Try to make it look as much like a natural timber floor as I can, and the answer to that is using lash clips as far as I'm concerned.

I found with most planks I have to do 1/4 bond because there bowed...

Christ that looks lovely!

You guys really want to send a friend of the family in who's got the digital camera (there's always one or two in every family lol) once it's been furnished to take some professional snaps. They'd look stunning on your websites and whatnot.

That's why I use clips Mark, overcomes that issue as long as it's marginal bowing. They can't perform miracles haha

Yeah I've seen a few bodge jobs over the years. But also been graced with some of the best tiling on the planet. Maybe.

That reminds me, I'm still yet to port over member albums!

Hi

I'm new on here and just had my floor tiled with 80x80 porcelin tiles.
I knew it was a hard job and would not get it perfect. After the job had been done I have now heard about the tile levelling spacer system and am now gutted that this could have been used as there's some uneven tiles!

Would it have made a huge difference?

One room had been self levelled first and the others had the small red quarry tiles underneath.

Thanks

massive difference m8 on large format tiles I use themall the time

No specific adhesive for the system, just use what u need for the situation. I'll admit u need to have a slightly wetter mix, but still well within tolerances. I can walk away in the evening knowing that when I return the next day it'll be exactly how I left it. How many times do u return thinking that you're sure it didn't look that way last night!
I know it's happened to me more times than I care to remember!

started to use the genesis system 2yrs ago, I found a factory in china that makes them and imported 200 bags of then clips at a cost o f £2.00 PER BAG we now use them on all most every job we use large format tiles on but like he says you have to have a wet mix. there not for the amature as they don't know how the addy reacts under the tile i still check that the tiles are giving the right coverage by lifting one or two near the end of a mix just in case. pease of mindlast year me and our kid did 80 mtrs using this method in a beauty salon in darlo in 2days must thank phil at ctd for the recommendation as the guy had been droped in it at the last minute due to an over lap of jobs
