Looking after your levels - Tile Advice

[Flintstone]

Having just treated myself to some new levels, thought I ought to look after them instead of chucking them in the back of the van. How do you store yours ?

Get a roof pipe or a bag for them stabila and fat max have bags avaliable

@Localtiler - mine are just straight edges now! The laser level does the job and that gets looked after.

The levels I've got are stabila, does a bag really do much ?

Keeps them together so the small ones don't get banged about or get lost in the pipe

I've got a stabila case with 2 pockets, one holds the 120 & 180 and the other holds the 60 & 30. Don't think it cost much, £20 or so. It does however look like you're carrying a shotgun into people's houses

I have a protective layer of Tile cement on mine

You still need level even if it's just to borrow the plasterer so he gets the boarding flat and straight lol

They don't know what spirit levels are!! Guess work, keys on some string and that'll do

The plasterer knows the sprite as the mythical "Bubble Stick"

Advice/help please....

I have 51m2 level floor, I'm tiling 20mm 850x850mm Carrara marble tiles.

I intend to put down 20mm adhesive bed, then use levelling spacers to maintain the perfect level....

I'm not a professional tiler so my main concern is the level... can anyone give me some tips to level such big tiles

Many thanks
Al

Al why do I get the feeling I know you?
Perhaps if things are as you claim then you should get a plaster to check the levels first!
