  • How to use thick tiles?

    I brought bathroom floor tiles 600x600 with a 9.5mm thickness for my bathroom which needs 7 box of tiles. My builder states it is too thick to work with. However I have seen other bathrooms install these tiles perfectly. Is this true or should I find another builder?

    Fitting skirting about radiator pipes

    We’re looking to fit new skirting, the old skirting we had was 45mm our new skirting is 119mm but the issue we have are the pipes for the radiators. They’re quite low down which is causing a problem with how high the new skirting is. How would we tackle this problem? Jigsaw the skirting to fit round the pipes? Or try and slot the skirting behind the pipes by removing the radiator temporarily?
