Porcelanosa are a brand so what tiles are they ?

[david campbell]

there tiles are top notch,should make it an easier job

Hi mate, just make sure you use correct materials(porcelbond bagged addisive). Do the right prep work. Work clean. As said take your time. If they are polished make sure you seal before grouting. Hope this helps. Good luck

[MJ17]

Not sure until I get there which tiles they are. Any tips on cutting - dry/wet? (if it goes well it probably lead to more work, i think that's why I'm fretting a little as work is few and far between here).
Cheers

How can you start a job without knowing what tiles they are?

[whitebeam]

Have you been tiling long

[MJ17]

it's a new showroom, guy wants me to tile a bay for him. He told me it'l be in porcelanosa. Have been tiling 6 years. Thanks

[timeless john]

Just be your luck to turn up with a TS60 to find the tiles are 1200mm long.
Check the size before you go so you have the right tools.
New logo 't' shirt - dust sheets - and professional attitude.

Porcelain tiles.....

As I always say!


Dont forget your diamond holesaws and drills for things like radiator pipes as well as fixtures and fittings !

[cjones]

Hi CJones,
This is suppose to be a forum for tilers to get advice from colleagues. I am tiling a bay, yes, but I have never used the Porcelanosa range before - even though I have been a tiler for 6 years and I was asking for any tips from fellow tilers! Today, after visiting a porcelanosa showroom, I am not at all concerned. Thank you to all who have supplied supportive comments.

Thanks Smurf,

I've been to a showroom and now i've seen what's expected of me I feel much more confident. Thanks for showing your photo's, I appreciate it.

Thanks Richard,

Cheers

[MJ17]

thanks for the advice Garretridge, quietly confident!
