Customer wants me to tile over the top part of the pictured wooden extractor (as well as the rest of the splash back) with mosaic tiles. What would your recommendations be here? Hardiebacker secured to the wood then tile over or is this not going to work?
It is a pretty solid piece of kit and he is getting a carpenter to re-fix it to the wall so that it can bare the weight of the tiles etc.
I don't quite get the concept of why they want this tiled as I don't think it will look good or be that safe (weight etc) I did express all my concerns about it but he's adamant he wants to give it a go. My worry is that the whole thing will come off the wall and cause serious damage but he's again quite adamant that the carpenter or whoever he gets to re-enforce it to the wall is going to do a good job of it!
Your thoughts please. And the picture is attached below.
PS was not sure which forum to put this in!?
