A neat and tidy edge and corner trim in anthracite grey which secures fascia boards and capping boards for a neat and professional finish to your roofing project. If you need to take a chunk out of a tile for whatever reason, then using a wet tile cutter with diamond blade is my favourite.So after marking a notch to cut around my upstand (far right), I poured water in the cutter and carefully cut. It can also be used when boxing around pipes or columns in combination with our external corner profiles. Also, I never applied it to the back of the tile itself as there's grooves on the rear for the notchy adhesive to spread in to. Now spray the silicone with watered down washing up liquid and smooth run along it with the corner of a credit card.

If your tiles will stop at the end of a worktop that isn't between a wall, then it's best to cut your mitre section first.

Choose a colour that works with your worktops, whether it’s black, grey or white, to blend in with your décor.

We have carefully curated our range from a selection of different materials, in a variety of colours, textures and finishes so that we are able to offer options to suit any kitchen. I lined my first tile up with my centre pencil line, ensuring I left a slight gap for the spacer and pressed firmly on the wall. And right or wrong, this happened to me once, so I prepped it again with a pva solution then left to dry before continuing on the next day.
