If customer wants Dorico tile inside reveal, then fix trim and cut the tile into soldiers inside. Otherwise, silicone some plastic PVC cladding around it, prop it with timber struts until it's set....Gaz

I don't want to be too critical smasher, don't want to dent your confidence, but if it's wrong...it's wrong. We will do you no favours if we pretend it's ok, and you will learn nothing...Gaz
