Hmmm they are not soo expensive for the tiles themselves, as I have a very small space
https://www.besttile.co.uk/product/moroccan-encaustic-cement-16a3-daisy/But your advice plus the lengthy instructions from the seller do indeed make them sound incredibly fussy
https://www.besttile.co.uk/cement-tile-advice/No way I could do this myself and the chances of finding a pro to do it who is sufficiently fastidious seems small (I know you would do it perfectly but you're too far away)

Those tiles are beautiful and perfect for a smallish space. They are a complete bastard to lay, they have to go onto a glassily smooth concrete base with a flexible adhesive or they'll crack. Forget the already expensive cost per metre of the tiles, it's the prep that costs the real money and the adhesive isn't inexpensive (you'll need twice the manufacturer's claimed coverage).
But, they are gorgeous.
