Which way best ?
I have a problem to solve, so thought best to find out from you guys what you would do in this situation, I will try and explain as best I can.
I have a large bathroom which we are half tiling all the way round the room apart from the shower area, this area will be fully tiled for obvious reasons after it has been tanked with WP1.
Now the first problem is how to continue the tiles above the half tiling to the top of the shower screen, I think the tiling should be completed first, before fixing the shower screen to the walls, what do you do in this instance ?
Secondly the tiles are 335x450mm and it takes 2.5 tiles wall to the inside of the screen, if I fix the shower screen first, and tile up to it, would you want the screen fixed first, or fix it after all the tiling ?
If the shower screen is fixed first would you use the other half of the cut tiling to continue on the walls outside of the screen going round the room ?
I hope I have explained it correctly.
I have attached pic's.
The top half of the walls have been painted, the white paint below is where the half tiling will go.

Its best to tile 1st and have the screen fitted on top of the tile if possible
but if you cant then follow the cut around the room if it works out ,

Hi Dan
Sorry for the delay in replying.
Do you come by Somerset often? Bring some tile / stone samples and we can trial our sealer on them.
Best regards
John
Hi Evrim
Fropping an email might hurt!!!
Do you come by Somerset at all? Bring some tiles samples and we can test our sealer.
