 Ceramic and Stone Tiling - a statement of the bleeding obvious, 2009-01-04
Quoting the back cover of this small but expensive book(let ): "If you have never fixed a tile......" then this book may be for you but you will learn no more than reading the tiling section in Reader's Digest Complete DIY Manual and that's no compliment. Very little discussion on tools or technique with the tools; next to nothing on mosaics; the briefest mention about tanking; absolutely zilch on wetroom shower formers or the tiling of them. I could go on but instead I'll mention its one saving grace: it does warn you about the use of natural stone, their high maintenance and often unpredictable quality. If you've had any dealings with natural stone, you will know exactly what the author means.
Save your money and get your information from the many excellent, online, tiling forums.
 Clear and helpful advise, 2005-11-15
John is very clear about how to tile, instructions are straight forward with handy pointers on potential problems so you can avoid them. It really does make all the difference to have this kind of advise and plan before you start. An invaluable guide if you want to get it right.
