    UK Tiling Rates Per Square Meter / Per Day – How much do tilers charge?

    Ironically I've had a couple of issues today. I've had steady work from a company in York for the last 6 years. Solid, decent work. I charged them £30/m and £150/day for prep work etc. They also provide materials. On the cheaper side for York but it was steady work and paid every Monday. Had a...

    Levelling systems& large format

    I can see I've hurt your feelings a wee bit lads. No offence intended. I've always thought if you lay the tile properly they aren't required. Plus I've never thought they were cost effective and thought there was always the possibility of air gaps. Going to give them a go tomorrow though.

    Levelling systems& large format

    I am starting a large floor tomorrow in 1200 x 1200 tiles and am now thinking to myself should I be using one of these levelling systems kicking about. I have never used them and had no reason or desire to. I've always thought a decent tiler shouldn't need them..... But... A 1200 x 1200 tile...

    Sigma kera cut. Worth the price?

    Thanks very much for the response. I've got about 100m of 120 x 120 porcelain to lay. It's 10mm thick and I'm thinking I'll also need the breaker that goes with it. In the next month I do have a lot of thinner porcelain (just as big) to fit hence why I'm now biting the bullet.

    Sigma kera cut. Worth the price?

    Thanks. I've seen the kera cut set up and it is impressive ( for basically a straight edge and some suckers) Kind of made up my mind to go for it but thought maybe some of the guys on here with the experience of using it may say there are better options

    Sigma kera cut. Worth the price?

    Hi. I'm currently looking at investing in one of these cutters. I've currently got a rubi 1200 that's seen the best of days. I'm thinking this (Kera-Cut) along with the kera flex is going to give a lot more scope for cutting all this large format that's kicking about. Are most people happy with...

    Aus Hygrometer

    According to the videos on the website its just a case of pushing the sensors on the back of the meter into the screed and it gives you an automatic reading. Walk about, push it in here and there. Sorted. All for £400. Was on a job recently and the floor layer (wood) came in and tested the...

    Aus Hygrometer

    Good evening all. Looking for a bit of advice regarding hygrometers. Got a 150m2 gyvlon floor coming up in a couple of weeks and I am really tight with drying times. The floor is worth a fair bit and have it booked for the run up to Xmas. Santa is relying on it! I've done a few floors on...

    cracked screed

    As a rule. Any screed with ufh should always have a decoupling membrane on top
