very nice.
How long does it take to do this? Just laying tiles.
I never done this and I am very interested in your answer.

Thanks for the comments!
The job of the month was a 3 day job but had to go back to seal it.
The black,white and grey tiles are just 100x100mm unglazed porcelain at about 30p each and all the cuts are from that size tile. ie you can get up to 8 pieces from one tile.
The result is you do a lot more labour (more money) you make every job 'fit' and the customer pays about two/thirds of the cost of ready made tiles - to supply and fix. So in essence everyone wins. We do about two a month at present (3 on the books just now + large mosaic entrance).
John.
Any advice just ask.

Nice John, can i ask why you don't put a decorative infill into the door thresholds ?

The hallway is only 900m wide and it would distract from the main 'mat' area IMHO.
