How to tile around obstructions

[@nadinebm9513]

B and Q channel is very helpful, with basic, easy methods and tools. I DIYed my patio with your step by step video, now getting ready to tile my bathroom. Thanks a mill for these type of videos!👍🏠 💖❤️

Hi just wondering if grout should be applied between the wall and floor tile at the edge, or should silicone sealant be used?

Silicone because of the heat

I'm dreading this job. My home was retrofitted with gas some point before I moved in so I have exposed pipes running around the entire perimeter of my house, including the bathroom (rather than neatly poking out of the wall as in this video) and they have made every renovation job so far so much more complicated. Perhaps foolishly, I've chosen quite large tiles for my bathroom and I think smaller ones would have been sensible - I can basically guarantee that every cut is going to be difficult. Thanks for the video - this was helpful and somewhat reassuring that it's possible. Wish me luck.

I recently tilled in a room where my main brass water pipe enters my flat. Was it wise to grout the tile firmly round the pipe? I can see a problem should I need to remove the tiles in the future as this may rupture the pipe. Or can the tile grout cause damage to the brass pipe over time? did I do bad? this was my first time tiling. Amy.

***** Thanks very much for taking the time to answer my question. I can now sleep a little easier at night.

Love how they measure up properly and cut the hole for that radiator pipe bang on - but the fit an absolutely atrociously off-centred tile afterwards! That'd be off in weeks, with the hot pipe expanding! Amateur hour :)

Very Nice technique Thank you sir

Lol here we go again .... got the floor tile orientation wrong ! 99.9 % of floor tiles are too hard for a tile saw .

Surely you couldn’t tile the bath and the reinstall the sink

[@bandq]

Hi, there. Thanks for getting in touch. While it's possible to tile around a sink, it wouldn't be an ideal solution and the cuts required would be very difficult to make so we'd suggest removing the sink first. A tiler may be able to remove it if isolating valves have been used. For more info on how to tile a bath splash back checkout the following link: bit.ly/3t3VWAN Hope this helps!
