    Laying Floor Tiles

    You could also use BAL's PTB adhesive (pourable thick bed). Its good for filling dips in floors and will go up to 25mm i think. Also as you mix it up to a "pourable" mix it will ensure that you get a 100% bed for your tiles which you will require if they are thin.

    Tiling around a bath ... advice please

    As you are using glass tiles, you should also make sure your adhesive is white and has 100% coverage otherwise you might see the wall or adhesive through the tile. Also agree with the others re leaving a small gap above the bath (eg 1 2mm spacer). Andy

    There is a leak somwhere....help / advice?!!?

    I would presume that if your bill is double then we are talking about a serious quantity of water. Just imagine all the water you use for baths, showers, washing up, washing machine etc in one week and then try to imagine not seeing it if it was under your sink! If you had a small leak in your...

    Tiling Layout - Advice and Opinions

    Bathroom Sink Waste - I'm weeping !

    So basically, i presume there isn't any preferred method of making a water tight seal its a case of using your own preferred "gunk" (plumbers mate, silicon etc) to make a seal? Thanks for your replies anyway. Andy
