Re: Any new tilers stuck at all, with anything?

mite have a job doing a full bath room but she want's them putting on like brick work how do you set this out ?
 
Re: Any new tilers stuck at all, with anything?

Just like you would do a floor. Set out your first row of tiles. Then, measure half way across the end 2 tiles and see what that cut is like. Don't forget to take into account the best cuts around sockets / reveals etc, and adjust accordingly 🙂

i agree with concept try to lay out dry first much easier to work out the lay out
 
mark out your gauge rod as normal tiles then, mark the rod again on the same side with another colour where the tiles lie brick style, this should give you half tile marks down your rod, this will show you the cuts at problems straight away on both levels of the brick effect
