F off I measured the base tile there and was certain the grout line was central . Must of ‘moved’ magically overnight .... ? I will live with this anomaly- it shows I am human and not a tiling machine . ? When I spent a king’s ransom on tiles and stuff I told the guy I wanted zero mitring . Because I (expletive deleted)ing hate it . These little square ends are nice . But they fit in either way round and wobble !!! . Even with a blob of ct1 they wobble - so need to be left to set . Ucking rubbish !
-
Lol ! As soon as I read that look what I found ! I’ll loosely fit the trim - if it looks good I’ll bed it in ct1 ( any colour ! ) . Once gone off I’ll go round the edges of trim to tile with the silver ....
-
Don’t like the trim stuff . Awkward to cut dead straight . My previous limited experience of tiling was that the trim had a lip that cover the tiles edge , presumably to hide cut . Thought first about fitting the trim then the tiles . Realised that isn’t going to work ! . So tiles then trim . Assume on the gap between tile and trim I just ct1 the cack out of it . Uncle Nick can you come downstairs now please .

I think uncle @Nickfromwales told me this when he was upstairs tiling the bedroom with mummy again .

I was right ?
-
Jesus you worried me then ! .

Crumbs ! Hold on ! Let someone confirm I’m right first . Christ ! People think I know what I’m on about !!! ????
-
I thought you did ct1 as I said and no Mastik inside the shower I.e from frame to tray and wall . So no bead of silicone in the cubical . Obviously I could also be wrong ! ??
-
Nearly at next stage! So grout then Test shower doors dry . If good drill . Then presumably ct1 clear on door frame where it meets walls and tray That correct ?

Today some potential customers were coming to look at my glass balcony arranged by the installer of course . Unfortunately I couldn’t be there so I just left the side gate open and informed the company to help themselves. I decided ? to watch them on my Cctv . Unbeknown to them my Cctv has an audio feed ? They liked the balcony and phoned the installer / manufacturer once they had a good look . The customer on the phone said “ I think you’ve got it wrong that the balcony was installed 2 years ago as we assumed a finished house “ Installer replies Customer then says ” It’s a bloody total building site , I’d sack his builder ! “ Audio though is only 1 way . I did respond but alas they never would of heard my fruity words .... ?

I like the shop but often cry in the corner at the prices . Even SWMBO thinks it’s insane pricing . We look for inspiration then find something similar elsewhere - though I still weep at £x per sq metre

Tenant issue and legal position in HMO
Pocster replied to jfb's topic in Party Wall & Property Legal Issues
Yes But eviction is pretty much impossible with the current Covid rules . Tenant is just ‘playing’ the landlord . Pay him off get him out -
And the other bodily fluids we don’t like to mention .... ??

Tenant issue and legal position in HMO
Pocster replied to jfb's topic in Party Wall & Property Legal Issues
Lots of issues here ... As other’s mention Covid rules handicap you . Any ‘arrangement’ from one tenant to another is not binding - YOU are the landlord . Presumably the ‘problem’ tenants rent is up to date ? - that’s is ( was ) the easiest way to evict . I don’t like how the tenant is manipulating around . You need him out NOW . Easiest solution you get something in writing and you pay him to leave . Other non landlords will scof at such a ploy . But when things get awkward you need to take control of the situation . Unfortunately for differing reasons I can end up squashed between a rock and a hard place - money motivates most people . -
Floor tiles B & Q again . Get a dark colour as doesn’t show dirt - also nice and cheap My HMO ensuites have zero tiled walls use the ‘panels’ - no grout to deal with and easy to clean
-
B&Q etc . are the type of thing you want . Also push taps on the sink - so can’t be left running .
-
Yes - there’s much less mess . Also after A few hours I go round with a wet brush and try and gently remove any left over adhesive . Next day it’s ‘polishing’ with the dremel ... ? Pocket door expensive and a pita !

No hard water here . Never have had to ‘clean’ a washer or dishwasher.
