    Heres a Trav job,110m in total, slightly unusual as the client wanted it grouted in grey grout!!! A bit of an "oh crikey" moment when I started grouting, but it turned out ok,. They also wanted brown mosaics in the shower floor, but I persuaded them to allow me to envelope it as it is much neater and makes the floor seem bigger, Not bad at 45 degrees too
    There must be over 100kg of grout used here iirc

    In total there were 4 bathrooms and a oak floor entrance with marble insets. As I cant put forward all of them (or can i) I have chosen photos to one of my favourite bathrooms.

    Floor had to be brought up about 2 inches to meet the wooden floors on either entrances as well as fitting the UFH throughout. Hope you like the final finish as much as I do. It was one great big jigsaw puzzle and a load of fun.

    Thanks
