Thinking of doing an annual raffle for charity so that all the usual brands can get behind it. Perhaps end of June so about 6 months apart from the infamous Tilers Community Raffle so that people have funds again and things. There will be no costs to any brand except in goods we will 100% give away. We will cover postage costs. We will cover facebook advertising for the campaign for 3 months prior. However I would like to offer out say 5 charities that come out top by way of responses to...

Excellent review for this Suction Cup on Tilers Community.

The annual Tilers Community Group Christmas charity raffle has just raised £4,311 for varied charities. Group member and the group fundraiser Lee Poulter, (LP Tiling Horsham) and assisted by his wife Karen (middle and right in picture below)undertake all of the organisation and fundraising. Several fundraisers have taken place during the year and over the previous years. The annual Christmas raffle is something that finishes the year on a high for the group. Total amount now raised by these...

A bit of advice that has massively helped my business over the last 3 years. If you haven't already done it, smash your local Facebook pages with advertising. This period in between Xmas and new year is by far the most successful social media advertising time. Everyone is looking at making changes in the new year and looking for upgrades to their house. Last year I put one post out and managed to secure 11 bathrooms from that alone. Let's smash 2025 💪

So well done everybody if this does genuinely go to charities. But does it? Is there always proof it goes? And how are the winners chosen Is that transparent too? Some number generator or something?

I absolutely despair. I don't usually knock anyone's work, even on jobs I get called to repair/put right... but this boils my p1ss. A local property maintenance business has just posted this on FB, the owner lives less than a mile from me, and I've lost a few bathroom jobs to him. This is the standard? In his words, "Another satisfied customer" Fvck me.

A super important one this time of year.

Any of you members of Tilers Community on Facebook? They do a raffle where the members win prizes each month I think it is. Think you need to be in with Sam Hoffman to actually win it though as he manually draws it. Ha needs use a number generator or video pulling names from a hat or something. Loads of companies involved don't know how much he's charging for their involvement. Or whether he doesn't take anything and just wants to give the members things. The problem is; it's on...

How long have you all been tiling for? Where did you learn the trade?

https://www.tilersforums.com/threads/topway-1200mm-tile-cutter-100-video-pictures.106575/ https://www.tilersforums.com/data/video/89/89497-b735ccb2ead0b503ba9307a2030990dd.mp4 - video of it cutting. I saw this manual Tile Cutter that's 1200mm (they do a 1000mm too) for £109 on amazon and had to share it as it cuts so well.

What is you experience with either, or even lucky enough to have both makes maybe and prefer one cutter over then other for some types of tile or score/cut. And the other make perhaps reliable with tough long tile and thin cuts? What's your flavour? Rubi Tile Cutters or Sigma Tile Cutters? Or maybe even something else??

Our range of KERDI-LINE drains have long been specified as part of a system solution for showers, offering a number of configuration options and integrating with products in the KERDI range for a fully waterproofed system. Did you know our BBA-approved KERDI-LINE-G3 is the ideal solution where height build up may be problematic? At just 78mm high, floor build-up is kept to a minimum and specifiers are still able to meet the performance criteria of BS EN 1253. Ready to find out more...
