I feel humbled - some really innovative stuff there. :hurray:

Just completed these Geometric patterned steps this morning.. tiles were from original style.

Before after shots...

The steps were well out of shape so had to try and square them up as well.

Had to try and keep black step tread mitres the same size on all corners so cross bonding needed to attain this.

Grouted with Mapei 112..and sealed with Aqua mix ultra-solv.

Original style stuff is all single pieces as well( no sheets)...pretty time consuming.. been a while since i used their gear ... still enjoyable though..

Similar job Dave same tiles I think

 

[Time's Ran Out]

Same design but hand cut from Pilhingtons (RIP) Dorset range - lets hope someone takes them over - a lot more cost effective than other ready made types!

Quality TJ, I would imagine it would be cheaper for the customer if I cut my own. Rather than pay the extortionate prices, I might suggest that option in future

It does work out a competitive price for the customer, but you can increase the labour figure considerably. Once you've set the template up for the octagonal piece you can cut the main tiles within an hour (3-4 mts) and the bonus is you keep all the corners for future borders.
