    Default Ivory Travertine bathroom walls and Morron floor.

    The is a Bathroom i just completed today on the same house as the Pool job..

    I had to again Bull nose all external edges including the 2 niches with mitred internal corners.. and an internal corner return bull nose as well..

    This stone had some very nice colouring and virtually Zero filler marks.

    I also installed Morron Dark Emperador marble on the floor and same marble on the walls in mosaic inset panels.

    Just needs the Morron W/tops on and the piece on the bath front..

    Lovely job mate . There I was, all pleased with my sandstone floor and you've just watered all over my fireworks.

    Out of interest, what is the grout width?

    I agree, that bull nosing is awesome. Do you do it with your radial saw or angle grinder with the bull nose cutter?
