Looking for some advice of tiled my en suite and coming towards the end and gap down the edge is getting bigger as I go higher and looks as though will be about a 20mm gap
What do I do?
Evening,
Hope this post is in the correct section. If not, please feel free to move!
I'm hoping some of you can offer some advice on the best way to edge trim metro tiles. They will be fitted horizontal brick above kitchen worktops, with the top edge and one end edge bordering a painted...
We recently completed the (rectified porcelain) floor tile installation in the bathroom and finished the edge with the trim extrusion we were given when we bought the tiles. At the time i thought the edging profile was a little too high but since i couldn’t find any alternatives available that...
Hi,
Planning on tiling with a "border tile" along the top. It's an inset area with a sink, 2 internal corners and 2 exposed edges of the tiles.
I'm struggling to work out how to finish the exposed edges. I was planning on using white trim, but that doesn't look right continuing up to the...
Hi all,
This forum has been a wealth of knowledge for me while i tackled our new build.
A quick question please regarding wetroom wall tiles and a glass partition.
Where the wall tile meets the glass partition (tile will finish here and not go beyond the glass), do i finish the edge of the...

I am struggling to grout tumbled edge tiles. I've got two issues, firstly the grout won't stay in the joins very well - if I leave it long enough to go off so that the sponge doesn't wipe it all away, then that means it's also...
Hi am tiling a wet room with 5mm thick porcelain mosaic tiles (hexagons 5x5cm). The wet room is between walls and has a small step to get in and I would like the mosaic to wrap around the step. How can I finish the step nosing edge.
I tried to mitre but not very good at it and haven’t managed...
I've got a room with a two-layer plywood subfloor that is fairly flat (not level) but the floor ramps up at the perimeter fairly sharply. I'm going to be using Ditra for the installation (only for uncoupling - not worried about waterproofing). Rather than trying to raise the entire floor to...
We've seen a lot of comments online about grouting dark / black grout onto white bevel edge tiles - the leaching, the stains, the headache....this is totally a product push but watch the video Shaun shows how easy it is to overcome.
Top grout and we swear by it. Happy to do local demos with...
Hi. I’m not happy with this finish as I think it looks messy. In an ideal world we could have got a bigger bath or boxed it in with a stud wall but neither option would have worked given out limited space all round. What’s the best way to finish this gap between the bath and wall? I was thinking...
I have a Rubi manual tile cutter which is quite new. It has been fine initially but now each tile I cut fragments at the top. I cut from the bottom up but three tiles in a row have cracked the corner off at the top. Any ideas what I am doing wrong? These are all standard straight cuts. Nothing...
Hi All,
I am struggling to cut 10mm thick ceramics(600x300) with my wet cutter without some small chips on the cut edge. I'm worried this will look poor around the window where it meets the trim. My grout is a similar colour to the tile, will it colour the small chips?
Photo attached.
Thanks...
Hi all
I’m laying 600 by 600 square edge porcelain tiles. Because of the square edge should the grout be brought up to the tile level to protect the Edge.
I'm having a real problem cutting 20 x 10 tiles that have a beveled edge on all sides. If I score across the short side (10 cm) the tile cutter works as it should but every time I score along the long side (20 cm) the tile splits across the middle of the short side. Does that explanation make...
Doing a backsplash above a cooker and will be boxing in using metal profile edging, my intentions were to tile right up to the profile edge. Is this the correct method or do I leave a gap in between for grouting.
Hello all, what edging would you use to finish off a bevelled edge tiled wall and also the corners ? racking my brain trying to work it out on our new kitchen.
Cheers in advance guys

Hey guys, new to the forum.. I'm currently tiling a bathroom and have the tiles cut around the window in the front wall.. I've tried my hardest to get the edge of the window tiles as straight as can be but when placing a tile edge trim up against the line there's a 1mm gap every now and then...
I have about a 40mm gap between the bath edge and the wall, I plan to tile the wall, do you recommend boxing this in or using some kind of sealant? Really struggling to find a large enough ceramic or plastic lip edge to fit.
