Tiling behind radiators
Hi.
I am tiling a wall behind a radiator. I'm assuming that I should remove the brackets before tiling. If this is the right thing to do, should I screw the brackets back into place before the tile cement dries or after? Thanks. Arthur |

If you don't, and just re-fix them over the tiles, you're likely to get positioning problems, and pipework may be affected. |

The easy solution is to leave the screws in place, tile (or plaster, depends what you try to do) around them, and no problems! |
