quote: quick drying adhesive to stick the tiles down. Tiles were supposed to be £9 a pack, a pack is nine tiles which was 1sqm. Went to homebase on 10% off day put price error meant got them for £5.34 a pack :D Deffo recommend having a go yourself, there is great satisfaction in doing it yourself. Did the bathroom first as that was easier than the kitchen to get the hang of things then moved onto the kitchen tiles. Pain moving things around (washer etc) then tiling under that then waiting for it to dry then moving something else. | |

quote: Isnt hard to do, depends on what surface you re lying them on, if its concrete, it is easier(think you might meed to lay a a membrain) but can use most flooring tile adhesives. If its on a wooden floor, you need to level it off, i used 6mm ply, screwed it down, then pva on top then lay tiles on flexible tile adhesive and grout(allows for movement without cracking) and hey presto job is done. | |
