This is also my first entry into JOTM - Tumbled Trav - Opus Romano Pattern on the Walls with 60*40 Brickwork Trav on the floor. No real drama's on this job, I used tile wedges instead of spacers to space the Opus pattern as we all know they can vary!

Here's my first stab at the JOTM competition. It's a sparkly bathroom created by knocking together a small bathroom and a loo. The floor was a mess of old floorboards with about 40mm out of level across 3m, so after sorting the plumbing beneath, a new 18mm WBP ply floor was laid onto firings. All the vertical corners were rounded off to let the mosaic flow around the room - that took a while to get right! The walls are Iridis Verbena mosaic on Weber SPF adhesive with Weber Pro grout and the floor is Mirror Diamond synthetic black granite on Weber SPF with Weber Pro grout. It's taken 4 weeks to complete but we do now have very happy customers !

heres a full re fit i have finished today,

was a nice job to do as customer chose some nice gear to go into the room,always a pleasure to work with nice tiles and fittings

room was re boarded top to bottom with moisture res pboard and aquapanel

artex ceiling was over boarded and skimmed and spots and fan installed and painted

bath framed in and tiled...all floors up and re piped as room was moved all around

i must remember to take prep photos next time,please forgive me this time as we had a baby right in the middle of this one....well not literally me but my wife lol

customer is a designer of console games(xbox etc ) so when i met him he had a cardboard bathroom pre made bathroom to show me what he wanted ,lol

the setting out i would have chosen slightly different,and the tile cuts behind the pan were interesting choices as well as they didnt want to see the waste pipe but didnt like full btw pans?
all work done by myself apart from spots and plumbing
mirrors are to be installed by a seperate company next week

hope you like it

hello,
this is my first entry. i found this great forum a few days ago. i´m from germany and its very interesting for me. we don´t have such a connection and i think its not possible in germany. there is lots of inspiration projekts for me here and i´m very surprised how much stone tiles are processed in the uk.

here is my job of the month november. i shot the fotos on nov 30 but last two days it was not possible for me to load it up. if its to late, no problem at all.

its a black and white bathroom in a new house. i made a huge bathtub platform with a built in wardrobe on the right side and a illuminated niche in the backround. i worked up two euro-pallets of gas concrete stones. the wall between the shower and the sinks include a built in mirror cabinet.
the other pictures show the guest toilet and the entrance room.
all tiles are cut on bevel or miter on the edges. or how do you call it? we say "gehrungsschnitt". sorry about my english.
greetings rainer

Hi mate, is the floor surface Part screed part floor boards that you have tiled straight onto?

[Lincoln-tiler]

That question was for tobins tiling

[tobins tiling]

hello lincoln tiler the majority of the floor was a solid screed over under floor heatings pipe (the new extension) and the rest which was the hallway and back part of the main room was heating boards screwed over the floor boards that heating pipes run through and tiled

[Lincoln-tiler]

Thanks for your reply, I thought you was tiling straight onto floor boards for a minute then. Can't say I have ever used heating boards. You have done a very nice job btw!

[deanotile]

My vote is in

Some cracking workmanship, BoldreChris, that is a really funky looking design, very modern and striking.
