Post some updates on that please Derek. We sell stuff for polishing concrete on a daily basis but it's not often we actually get to see the result.

For future reference if you get any customers looking for mixes or colours then point them towards this company:- www.cemcraft.com

Very helpful, we send a lot of people in their direction. This polished concrete is actually becoming a big business and I've often thought it would be a good sideline for a tiler.

Greys or 60x30 beige on the half bond?
I'm still loving the grey trend.

A few months ago I had a customer with what must’ve been 20 greys laid out on his living room floor. Mainly Porc.

Fortunately he decided to go for the single sample I brought over. A 700 x 250 ceramic but I had photos of Bathrooms I had done with them. That year I had done about ten bathrooms in the same tile. I just find it boring now. You know when you finish a job and can’t even bare to look at it or even take a photo.

I totally agree about the biege. Some oldies still like it. Grey is still better than that.

The amount of grey kitchens/bathrooms I have done hasnt peaked yet. Just different shades and finishes, I give a another year or two before the next big colour comes along

I suppose the main question is.. whats next?

What is the next big trend?

 

[Waluigi]

I’ve done a few white bathrooms this year.
I’m not sure what the next trend will be. Maybe thin Porc? I don’t think it’s ready to hit the average domestic market yet. Walls aren’t flat enough

To be honest I like the Calcutta and Carrara marble look but dont know how many I could do before I got bored of that . But it is a classic
