trowel
A trowel is a small hand tool used for digging, applying, smoothing, or moving small amounts of viscous or particulate material. Common varieties include the masonry trowel, garden trowel, and float trowel.
A power trowel is a much larger gasoline or electrically powered walk-behind device with rotating paddles used to finish concrete floors.
hi all,
I'm in search of a trowel.
BAL 6mm round notch.
I've used them for the last 20 years now all of a sudden the shop I use can't get them so hence the post.
There must be someone out there with some stock !!
Hi!
Andy tiler here kindly adviced me a 14 mm round notch trowel for installing 60x60 porcelain tiles, but I can't find that size anywhere, including the online shops.
10x10, 20x15, 20x10 those yes, but not 14.
Does anyone know where to get it in Ireland or with delivery to Ireland?
Thanks.
Has anyone ever seen or know where I can buy one of these half sized notched trowels? Perfect for soap dish’s and kitchen splash Back hard to reach areas. Troxell USA make and sell them but don’t ship to the uk.
hi, I'm looking to purchase a good quality tile trowel, can someone maybe tell me which brands/models are the best?(quality/feel/durability/finish/performance...)
I currently got some cheapo wilko tile trowel I was given - It's rather crap, and I need larger notches. Don't really care about the...
Was recommended some mapei p9 adesilex for my ceramic 360 x 275 (8mm) tiles going onto plaster in kitchen, by tile giant. It says adhesive thickness no greater than 5mm on the bag. As ive just finished doing my bathroom using tubbed adhesive and the walls were a bit off i was able to get away...

I am just about to tile a shower cubicle. I'm going to use a bal waterproofing kit first.
I have been trying to buy a thin bed solid bed trowel to apply the adhesive. Why when I went into two trade supply shops did they looked at me like an alien when I asked if they had any ?
One of the...
just had the pleasure of using a kubala 10mm notched trowel, I found it lighter than my Rubi trowel. It was easier to clean as it's made of stainless steel and the handle is all plastic.
I've only used it to lay 10m2 of floor tiles but will post another review in a few weeks time to see how well...

I can't remember where. Maybe instagram but I've seen someone using a half length trowel, about 6 inch long, ideal for splash backs, for those of us that aren't too important to tile them.
Anyone know where to get them?
Hey guys
I'm going to be laying some basket weave mosaic tiles on my floor and some subway tiles on the walls. Just need some advice on the size trowels required. I have been getting mixed responses.
My mosaics will be laid on cement sheet in 300x300 premade mosaic sheets. They are 10mm thick...
I have read about trowels for mosaics on walls, around 3/4mm but wondering if this this still applies when using mosaics on the floor. The tiles I got are 5mm thick (see photo). Thanks.
Hi.
I'm laying large format porcelain tiles over screen with wet underfloor heating. I'm using Ditra as an uncoupling membrane, with Schulter movement joints at door thresholds. As the title of this thread suggests, I'm not sure which size trowel I should be using under the Ditra.
The...
This may sound like an odd question but we get asked for left handed trowels a lot, so much in-fact that we had a full range of stainless steel trowels made in left and right handed.
We were wondering if there are any left handed tilers on the fourm?
If so do you buy a left handed trowel or...

Hi guys.
Advice on the best trowel to get 100% coverage?
Going to install a shower area with 600x300 porcelain tiles. I'm thinking as they are a heavy larger tile I should use the 10mm notched trowel, and back skim. The wall will be pretty flat as I'm reboarding.
Is this better or as good as...
well, it's been a while since I've fitted anything over 600x600, I've been fitting 800x800 recently onto a reasonably flat floor, using the ragni trowel and a back slim I was getting fair coverage but not what I hoped for, adding a back notch with a small trowel helped a lot but it's more time...
