Brigzy 1,298 Posted April 10, 2014 Report Share Posted April 10, 2014 All kidding aside, good tilers are like gold! I tried doing my own once, and had to get a professional in to put it right ! Good luck, and I may be wrong, but isn't it "Flemish Bond". ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

moxy 617 Posted April 10, 2014 Report Share Posted April 10, 2014 Lino.................pub...................result A tidy up wouldn't go amiss. You can't lay Lino over a pile of rubble.
