Job Complete Looking for a tiler in STOCKPORT, CHESHIRE.. - TilersForums.co.uk | Tile Forums

Hello,

Just put in a WEDI bathroom & shower tray. Looking for a time served tiler. I'm in stockport, Cheshire.

Tiles are ceramic from Topps Tiles (large format 60x30 on walls - brick pattern, 30x30 on floor - straight rows).
Adhesive & grout from BAL (powered - have yet to buy).
Mosaic tiles for shower tray.
Bathroom dimensions are: 2.08m x 3.5m (floor) x 2.4m high.
Double window at one end and door at other end.
All bathroom units are removed so you have full access.
Pipes are caped off at the wall.

It would help if you've tiled on wedi board before, there's nothing special about this other than the small bumps caused by the sealing tape where one board meets another. This causes tiles to kick out, something I want minimised to stop water getting into the biscuit in the shower area.

I'd also request that you give sufficient time for the tile adhesive (Bal mosiac fix & Rapidset )to dry before you grout, and clean the tiles after you've grouted to remove any grout haze.

Any wet cutting can be done in the garage. Ruby cutting can be done in the house.

If anyone is interested, please PM me.

Thanks.

The job has been given to Bridge Tiling of Stalybridge (forum member).

He was not the cheapest, but his work looks good.

I'll post some pics when done.
