Haven't been asked for this sorta thing for YEARS! starting a job on monday for a customer of mine who always has 'wacky' ideas..this one is to tile the kitchen in brick slips cut (by me!) from very old london stocks to make the kitchen look like exposed wall..they are even going as far as having the power points running up the wall in metal conduit a la 'warehouse' ( I did tell her it would be loads cheaper to just go and live i an east end warehouse squat!) ..anyhoo..my question for all y'all is this..I've recommended the 'joint' should be left and 'tooled' in with a blunt stick (ie . smooth out the addy to give the appearance of a recessed mortar joint) rather than grouted...have any of you done similar jobs? and what did you recommend?.. I know we can always grout afterwards, but I feel the look is more convincing with a thick bed addy smoothed out..any thoughts /suggestions?, just thought as it's a bit different from my average monday I'd enquire...oh and happy saturday!
