I've got a project to lay approx 20m2 of travertine tiles in a bathroom (both walls and floors). The floors are 18mm WBP ply screwed down onto joists (suspended floor). The walls are a mixture of freshly plastered block walls and plywood for partition areas. I will be using an electric tile cutter as the tiles are 12mm thick. There are quite a few corners, both internal and external. I`m not keen on using those corner strips (plastic or metal), preferring a more natural straight edge finish. Only problem is the travertine is quite rough on the edges (the main surface is honed & filled but the edges aren't). What can I do on the edges? I suppose if I don`t use some kind of corner strip, the cut edges will be quite sharp? Does anyone have any tips for laying travertine tiles or preparation on ply/fresh plaster ? I`ve laid normal tiles before but not these beasts. Also to complicate matters I`m creating a wet room area where the shower is using Wedi Fundo products, any tips from past experiences here?
TIA Paul
