Got a bathroom I've started but client is a fireman and can only have me & plumber in when he's off work.......... Done two walls tuesday and going back next week to finish, then back again for the floor....I don't half get them!!!

And to finish off mosaic job I started today but ran out off sheets!

Plumber has two other bathrooms in line for me, I don't know when.

Had lots of phone calls, but their the ones clients are fishing for the cheapest price, even though I've been recommended!

Onwards & upwards...................

i aint done anything of interest for about 6 months,this is norfolk though.
the most exiting job was yesterday a large shower with an upright glass mosaic border and a border a foot up from the shower tray.
field tile BOG standard whites 2 bob a mt.

[Dave]

I think it's picked up...really do..

About a month ahead now......i'm just interested to see if anybody is working with anything nice for a change to the norm...but if you are busy then thats a good sign...

I have had alot of stone jobs lately....anybody else find that stone is getting more and more popular....maybe coz prices are better on stone than it used to be....

I have just started getting stone at a place in shildon not far from me called perfect home and garden...excellent quality stone...makes a change from some of the crap that a few new suppliers are trying to sell as first grades...

I've got a couple of outside steps to do (10m2 each).......nightmare but great chance to enjoy the sunny weather!!

Got a cappacino marble floor and bog to do, limestone kitchen floor with trav backsplash, porcelain swimming pool surround and a couple of plain old bathrooms.

I've seen a lot more stone work over the last couple of months, as you say Dave....it's becoming more affordable.

[garythetiler]

i have some nice stuff coming up getting lots of new enquiries at the moment, doing a swimming pool at the moment fully tanked it then the client decided to put extra lights in , doh!!! should start the tiling on it next week , finishing a job tomorrow that has some nice bathrooms in and a nice 60x60 quartz floor, finished a multisize porcelain floor today which turned out nice

[mikethetile]

One of my customers just picked up some barn conversions to screed in Norfolk - think they will be tiled - not sure if supposed to do this on this forum but I could probably get you some details if you want some work to chase - they will all be Anhydrite

Are you going to put that on before the Anhydrite is dry

[Ajax123]

Are you going to put that on before the Anhydrite is dry

Yes - depends what I can get hold of at special rates (i.e. free from work) but will probably be Tremco ES3000, Merlin Barrier coat or Laybond.

[CJ]

Busy at the mo..............but nothing exciting. Bog standard bathrooms/kitchens with fairly cheapo stuff.

Nice jobs with nice tiles are few and far between at the mo

[Dave]

No.....

Been on with this job since the beginning of the year...in different stages...bathroom ...2 wetrooms....limestone floor utility and hallway...tumbled marble floor in kitchen and that sunroom above then back in 2 weeks for kitch walls and utility walls..then finished...

[timeless john]

nice job David.
You can tell it was in the north east because of the sun gently cascading through the closed windows (to keep out the wind).
Well done -more pictures please.
John.

[Dave]

yes..john..never have a draft over a floor whilst grouting and drying....don't want effo or patching do we...

[BDS]

Looks great dave ...the last 3 bathrooms have been travertine ,the 25m2 bathroom i`m on at the mo is travertine,then next one is pocelain,then another travertine one with trav mosaics.then the next 4 dont know as of yet cos they`ve not picked their tiles yet,alot of people are going for travertine at the moment cos of there being some good deals out there at the moment i think.
