    Default Opus Romano, wet floor,enveloped

    Completed photos to follow
    This was a head scratcher !!

    Do not comment on walls and bed ! this job was taken over from another tiler who had bodged the job, we finished walls as best we could without ripping off and starting again, and did floor.
    Floor was set out for best fit to room. Original tiling had slivers on 2 walls.

    Loads of cutting Nick, shame that the cut that must have broke is a different colour shade to the 2 small drain cuts..

    Well spotted pal. Only a true professional would flag this. tiles were limestone. The cut you mentioned broke when I was fixing so I had to cut other pieces to fit,afterwards.. nightmare

    One of the more difficult jobs I have done. Same house had a wet floor in 20mm marble,600 x 600, very brittle, the triangular cuts kept breaking off at the point... finally finished it, photos to follow.

    Very nice indeed,
    I did one similar and it took a bit of head scratching too
