    Default Bisazza zebra mosaic wetroom advice

    Im about to tile a wetroom in Bisazza zebra mosaics and wondered if anybody has used them and got any tips or images to give me abetter idea of the pattern. Theres only one image in the brochure which only shows a bit of the floor. The wetroom has a back wall of 3m long with 1m returns on each side.The bathroom floor is 3mx2m flowing into the 3m x1m wetfloor
    The pattern on the back wall will flow into the floor and around the side walls but im just a bit worried about the pattern on the floor when it meets the side walls. Ive Been thinking about curving the corners of the room and also curving the walls into the floor.Any ideas??

    Paper face are better for curved areas, they don't close the joints like webbed back ones..........

    There is an Ardex product thats good for curving areas from floor to wall, can't remember what it's called

    I fitted these tiles the other month, over £500 per m2. very exspensive tiles. You can only buy them in a multiple of 12 sheets. they are numbered 1-4 and basically the pattern only uses the 4 sheets but is reversed and spun round etc to get the pattern. you have to pick a point in the pattern they supply and go from there. Just remeber the tiles face the adhesive and paper faces the outside. you will need the smallest trowel available to fit these as the tiles arent very thick and the adhesive will come through the spaces.Although it says zebra the tiles are actually white, black, pink, cream and brown in colour. the tiles come with their own epoxy grout to use aswell with special scrubber pads to remove the resin.

    The tiles are only tiny , theres about 1000 little tiles per 300mm x 300mm sheet. They will go around any corner without cutting them.
