    Default NE Tiling

    Just back from the tiling course at NE Tiling.
    I've done a bit of tiling in the past and without sounding too modest turn out a decent job, what i was lacking was speed and knowledge. I'm a joiner by trade so very rarely see tilers in action, so couldn't pick anything up. The course at NE Tiling provided me with a great deal of information, tips/tricks, a raft of information on substrate backgrounds and even some money making tips ( we all love them ). I'll be a lot more confident the next time i'm asked to do tiling.
    Big thanks to both Darren and Mick, special thanks for Mick who for the most part teaches the content of the course, great guy, always took time to explain things in depth and answer questions, and having time for humour is always a big plus in my book.


    Oh and Darren, after looking at people in colours i came to the conclusion that my g/f wakes up red, comes home red and goes to sleep red

    Colour thing is a personality thing to try to match your customer for those that were wondering

    I done the 4 day ceramic course + the 1 day stone course, would have done the extra 4 days in tiling but had contracts coming up so sadly couldn't. South Shields was great, lovely place. Also had the opportunity to visit family in Sunderland, which was an added bonus .
