    Spot the ball

    Not my balls up, but started a job today, a cloakroom/utility refurb. Started to take off the old 6'' white tiles and found that they was stuck on not one layer of wallpaper but TWO!

    Advice please...!!!

    If just the tiles have come clean off and everything else is solid would it not be possible to go over the floor with SLC and re-tile on that?

    Tilers Forums Hall of Shame....

    Just read through this thread and seen some proper horrors. Saw something like this a couple of times; What is the correct way to do this sort of cut? would you go to the trouble of getting the system drained, removing the rad valve and drilling the tile?

    Superb work David - I'd have said prepping and tiling 4 rooms like that in 3 weeks was very good going myself.

    removing efforlescence from red bricks

    You can dilute it a little, usually instructions are on the container. Some are stronger than others so just try a patch first.

    removing efforlescence from red bricks

    Just finished a garden that had nearly 3,000 Red Leicesters and had a bit of efflorescence show up - gave it a quick application with brick acid and a brief jet washing sorted it.

    External mitre profiling tool
