Any tilers on here?

[fundy]

Bathroom being fitted in a few weeks and as we usually do we are doing the tiling ourselves (competent DIY level, no better lol)

Broke my tile cutter last time so hired one for a day to do all the cuts. Was planning on buying a new one this time round but seems an utter minefield as to what to buy? Were only wall tiling this time, 600 x 300 porcelain tiles, 9mm thick and straight cuts (its not a fully tiled room). Likely other requirement will be the kitchen floor which will probably be 600 x 600 porcelain.

Was planning on buying a Rubi manual cutter to do the majority but not sure which to buy and whether this is ok or whether Im better off with a wet saw? Any recommendations please (preferably not hire a pro tiler unless a) youre local and b) available in a few weeks c) mates rates

A rubi or sigma are your best bet, I personally preferred sigma. Wet saws are good but only as good as the diamond blade you have on it.

For straight cuts I’d go dry cutter,faster,cleaner & better cuts.
