Been to a house today to look at a disabled bathroom to pit in for the local council, this was the work the plasterer and tiler did the year before for this family. Can't really see how bad it is from the pics, it looks better that it is. The plastering was awful,looked like it had been put on with a shovel and the floor looked like they laid it and ran over it with a wheelbarrow filled with the plaster and said shovel

Jings thats awfull!!!
Poor punter.
Just been asked by a customer to sort out the silicon between the tiles and shower tray. I was originally asked to tile the shower cubicle but apparently she couldn't afford me. What she really meant was she couldn't afford for me not to do it!!!
The gap varied as you can see between £2 and £3.20. (Which is what the should have been paid) The photo of the edge is where all the grout/addy mix combo :mad2:was just left where it met the other tiles on the stud wall. The photo of the ceiling is where the gap is filled with grout/addy, that measured 14mm between top of tile and ceiling. AAArrggghhh
