When it comes to tiling, home improvers will not require a great deal of tools, according to an expert.
Writing in an article for
FoxNews.com, Jason Gurskis has revealed that tiling can offer a durable and quite elegant option for homeowners.
Discussing the items that people will need in order to have a go at this DIY activity, the writer noted: "A putty or spackle knife, pliers, big clean sponge and a bucket are the basics."
He continued: "A notched trowel, grout float, and a tile cutter are the more 'job specific' tools."
Those looking to complement a new set of wooden
Venetian blinds may also be interested to hear Mr Gurskis' suggestions that tiles can be used in a variety of different areas within the home environment.
Sales of outdoor DIY products appear to have improved last month, figures from the British Retail Consortium and KPMG have suggested, with home improvers seemingly keen to take advantage of the sun.
