I want a small a joint as possible really, what would you recommend using a 400mm x 400mm natural slate in a wet environment? I assume it will need to be at least 1mm? I'm a bit dumbfounded by all the products so your advice is greatly appreciated. Also when grouting, do you apply it with a...

What about Grout? - ardex?

i do not have a powered mixer. I was thinking of using one of those big plastic carry tubs to mix in. I do have a drill, can you buy a mixing attachment or is it best to mix by hand?

ahahh! I see thanks a lot.

Anyone gonna help me then?

I'm so confused by the range, if I were to buy an adhesive then which one would be best for my 400 x 400 x 10mm slate tiles going into a shower environment? http://www.wallsandfloors.co.uk/ranges.php?rid=406&t=Accessory&acid=5&gclid=CM3oiue36qECFUNb4wodOws2KA

I am tiling my shower and wash basin stand with 400x400x10mm honed slate tiles. The manufacturer has priced me up a norcross adhesive and unbranded grout that they recommend. I know on this board everyone seems to recommend BAL products. I will be tiling onto MDF (wash basin stand) and moisture...

Cheers Richard. The wood was bone dry and I applied three coats of polyurethane varnish to it prior to applying the cement, so hopefully it will not have taken in any moisture. I will give it a few more days and ensure it is still solid before taking a decision to tile, gut feeling says it...

I am going to paint the wall space between the worktops and cupbards and not tile. The question is should a stainless steel splashback fill the width between my wall units between above the hob, or should it be narrower and align with the hob and extractor, thus having a slim painted area down...

The base is 38mm pineboard. The cement has a 1mm crack between the tray and baseboard where is has shrunk upon drying, the tray is in tact and not moving. I don't suppose you can eliminate shrink cracking (I did not make the cement mix too wet either). I'm just worried about any of the cement...

I've installed my tray on cement as advised on Saturday. The drying out process has created a small 1mm crack between the baseboard and the tray - is this normal? The tray does seem very solid and does not move but I am worried about any cement cracking/crumbling and leaking out of the gap...

Shower Tray

I'm going to tile the top of a sink unit with 400mm x 400mm natural slate tiles. The width of the unit is 400mm. How would I obtain the best corner finish using these tiles on the external corner - between the top of the surface (horizontal) and the 200mm high vertical pelmet. The edge of the...

The base is a 38mm thick solid softwood table top, screwed to the joists every 100mm, as I wanted to have the wood showing below the shower tray to match the floor. I have coated this with 3 coats of varnish. It is very solid and does not creak but I need to be sure that there are no leaks from...

just seen your post on my other thread - hadn't seen it before as I didn't get a notification hence repetition!
