Tiling Course for BeginnersAt long last, by popular demand, we are running two Tiling Courses.
Our Tiling Courses run over two sessions:
Tiling 1 - Prep, Setting out and Laying Tiles
Tiling 2 - Grouting and Sealing
You don't have to do them consecutively, but it may help
Tiling has a reputation for being fiddly, and it isn’t entirely undeserved. Most of the difficulties happen before you even pick up a tile, though, so that’s where we start.
We’ll look at different tiles (ceramic, porcelain, natural stone, zellige and so on), which patterns are forgiving and which are best saved for later, and which tools are worth buying.
You’ll come away knowing how to:
Prepare walls and floors properly
Set out a wall so the cuts end up somewhere sensible
Mix and apply adhesive
Measure, mark and cut tiles, including holes
Lay tiles level and finish the edges with trim
There will even be homework, (of sorts): before Day 2, take a few photos and measurements of somewhere at home you’d like to tile. This means that we can help you plan and prepare for your own projects
