I can also advise you on the best way to fit your tiles, and by that i mean the substrate they’re going to be fitted to, which ensures that they wont crack, break or fall off after a few months, and I also make sure you’re supplied the correct tile adhesive and tile grout that is suitable for your job, normally the shops do a good job supplying the correct items but sometimes mistakes are made and its important that they are picked up on before the job starts and not when its finished.
