laser level on floors - TilersForums.com

evening again

tried a laser levl last month for the first time and must admit i loved it. It was good quality and i used it for my datum, batton and to make sure my vertical grout line was sweet.

question i have is i wanted to buy one and do alot of floors.
how does the laser work on the floor. I think im just a bit dumb but how do you know your laser is running direct through the centre. i know thr line will always be straight but just cause its staight does not mean i wont go off at an angle. i hope you get me :dizzy2:

do you still mark your centre point , say in doorway get a straight line then put laser over top , please help ive confused the ****e out of myself , and you lot proably

Alreet mate,
basically you do put marks down on the floor and run your laser through your marks. Use your laser instead of a chalk line. You still have to run a tape round the floor/room to check dimensions n all. Once you find squarest point to work off, put a mark each end of the room set out according to the tile size n laser on through babeh..! :8:
