Hi there


We have a new bathroom that will need tiling in the next 2-3 weeks. The room is 2.5m x 1.8m. All tiles are Porcelanosa Porcelain around 10mm thick.


2.5m Long Side Walls Porcelanosa Medite Calpe Bianco 75mm x 300mm Heringbone layout


1.8m End Walls (one of which has door in) Porcelanosa Medite Calpe Sea Green 75mm x 300mm Heringbone layout


There are no windows.


Please see pictures for how we want the Heringbone formation to be laid.


Floor Porcelanosa Carrara Blanco Natural 596mm x 596mm


White grout throughout floor and walls.


The room will be prepared with Marmox tilebacker board on all walls and the floor. 12.5mm board on the short end walls as these are stud walls. 6mm board on the long side walls as these are masonry walls. 30mm board on the floors. The floor has a single fall 800 x 800 wetroom tray in one corner with a 'pure' tileable drain cover. The wetroom is 30mm deep at top edge which will line up with the marmox board. The shallow end is 18mm deep. Please bear in mind edging the tile where the board drops from 30mm to the shallow 18mm part of the tray (where the glass shower screen will sit).


All boards will be fixed with proper washers, covered in mesh tape and the shower area will be tanked ready for tiling. The floor will also have a Warmup StickyMat underfloor heating (resting on the boards on one side of the room and on the wetroom tray). We will just dry lay this prior to tiling as the specs state it can be tiled straight onto using flexible adhesive.


The shower area will have a Schluter Kerdi double Niche with shelf that we will want in Heringbone layout (as much as possible) also.


Holes will need to be cut for concealed WC Frame, conceleaed shower valve ( + hand spray + main shower head), concealed bath valve (+ hand spray + bath spout)


Hole for a waste pipe in the floor under where the freestanding bath will go - although this doesn't need to be too precise as it won't be seen - can be a square gap. Hole for waste pipe and hot and cold pipes behind where the hung vanity unit will be. Again, not seen so can be a square gap.


There will be three sockets up in the top corner of the wall with the door in - isolator switches for fan, underfloor heating and electric towel rail. We will fix these back boxes in place with a lip of 10mm so that they end up flush with the tiles.


Tilers - please quote for the job.



Any recommendations of people also much appreciated.



Thanks!

You seem not to understand the meaning of "national debt".  Have you perhaps been relying on someone else's usage? I'm sorry to hear of Starmer's decimation.

So I've dug out the url to have another try, this time without embedding:  https://x.com/guyshrubsole/status/1858490339356533018 .  Seems ok.   in reply to my own "Where did you get this from?" response to your post at https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/353788-is-rachel-reeves-becoming-the-new-liz-truss/?do=findComment&comment=1688310, in which you again spoke of the government's "doubling the national debt".

The above merging of my posts in response to Sue and to Jazzer have been done by the forum system, so there's no point in my trying again to separate them.  I've already tried editing out the merging and reposting the one to jazzer, but ended up with the same forced merge.  Apologies. Latest edit.  The moral seems to be: don't try making two consecutive posts or they'll be liable to merging.  I've now been able to post a freestanding reply to jazzer's post now that there's an intervening post.
