My condo tiles popping out recently due to some hollow ones.
Heard need to remove the tiles and re-lay them again. Anyone has similar experience and can tell how much you have spent to fix this? |

Do you guys opt for PVC tile trim for the tile edge/corner? Or go for tile on tile basis?

QUOTE(cheefai7 @ Feb 21 2013, 08:19 AM) I think people seldom use those little square tiles for edge/corners nowadays. I used PVC strip and it's looking good so far (after 1.5 years). Used it on walls in kitchen and bathroom, around window frames and wall corners. For floor and countertop, I just asked the tiler to round down the corners of the tiles. |

Just a note that the Feruni Black & White Aludra Black AL81NN 60x60cm tiles that I used for my bathroom concrete counter top is proving to be flaky and brittle.
While installing the tiles, the tiler commented that they were easily broken when cut and quite a few tiles were wasted due to breakage when cutting them. Now after only less than 1.5 years, a small chip (about 5mm width) appeared on one of the edges where it's been rounded off. It's surprising since we don't do very much on the counter top in the bathroom. Maybe the maid hit it with the handle of the mop or something. It's a small chip, and not very noticeable unless you look closely, but thought I'd share this experience here. Attached thumbnail(s) |

I have a question regarding tiles - not the installation process but where to find someone to buy my leftover tiles (as in unopened cartons) as i have just finished my renovation. Anyone has knowledge of this?

Hi, my dad did tiles renewing without changing the whole tiles.. No matter how dirty and stains that couldn't be removed, there will be special way to remove it and restore it just like your newly bought/installed tiles (except there's cracked tiles).. Light scratch could also be remove unless it is deeply scratch..
It is much cheaper compare to change the whole tiles as u need to removes your unwanted tiles and install your new tiles.. There's double cost over there.. Why not using alternative way and use back your original tiles without wasting much money.. Result guarentee!!! For quotation and more information, you can call my dad. 0163828988 (Meng) 0163602000 (Amy). Thank you!!! Hope this help.. Picture will be provided if u r interested.. Just pm me..
