Levelling clips are a load of tosh? Really? - TilersForums.com

[On one]

I'm yet to take the plunge into levelling clips.......I can understand where they might bend 1200mm planks......but could they bend 600mm x400mm porcelain in brick bond flat?...... a scenario I had last week where the customer wanted brick bond but the tiles did not agree!

Andy do you give the price to the customer including clips before you start the job?sorry meaning are they included in your price

Not given a fixed price for years, everything's an estimate with me, dayrate plus mats, just tot up everything at the end, customers usually ask what they do and after explaining the benefits they just pay, not had a quibble about £20 or whatever for them on an invoice up to now..

So say i have a fifteen mtr floor to tile just 600 ×300 brick style from b&q any idea how much please the floor may need a couple of bags of leveler first

I've been using them for ages. I add the cost of them to the job but have never discussed it with a customer.... It's not an option as far as I'm concerned. Virtually every customer I've had has been really impressed by the clips.

I am also absolutely sure that they do speed up workflow and I'd recommend them to anyone
