    I'll get the ball rolling. Finished off today. Polished limestone inside and out. 300 x various x 15mm inside and 600x various x 30mm outside (some outside slabs were as much as 1400mm so they were a bit of a back breaker!!) 10mm gap between edge of outside tile and edge of glass building where the stone has been rounded off to allow water to run down to drain. Also the whole length of the outside has rounded edges to give a nice finish. 4 x 115mm holes cut for outside lights. Scribing around brickwork steps. Grout lines running in line from inside to out and all at same level. Materials used : Dural CI Matting, Bal Tile and Stone PTB, Mapei Ultracolour Jasmine Grout, Lithofin Stain Stop and Lithofin Powerclean.
    A bit of a job that one!! Hope you like it

    thought i would add this wetroom all the walls are granite .under floor heating ,glass mosaics.
    i got a window company to cut the glass door and we took the window out and put in a special mirrored window.
    all granite and glass equals reflections so was hard to get a good pic

    I couldn't choose one based on quality of workman/womanship alone as they are all top drawer, so I've gone with which one I like personally. Not the way I normally choose but you backed me into a corner!

    3 Very Good entries - I like the limestone - excellent work and well finished. The granite wet room is smart work and as one who has done a fair bit of Granite work, I like the accuracy. - I like Tenchman would like to see some stage work photo's - well done

    The Pengiuns are really special and My vote goes North this month, but a close decision

    That photo of those rounded edges around that post, Ross, clinched it for me, - deserves a medal in my book apart all the neat cutting in and the fact that my back could break just looking at it all, but Brinkley's work is really really good, too, aren't we all clever? I said to hubby that if I did win I'd send the knee pads to you, you'd need them more than me, I mean kneepads and mosaic studio... and he burst out laughing, saying too right you don't need kneepads, tell them you'll kneel before no man... Nice to show our stuff but the best thing of all is the happy customer at the end of each...
