surely no one is that stupid . was there a reason for them to be down like that
No excuse for that.
I want to blame the customer when they are employing 'tilers' that tile to that kind of standard. People need to check more.
I'm writing some pages on the blog to explain why to avoid cheap tilers and how to check work etc

Very rough start to one area but hopefully it'll get some points across.

How come they didn't use same tiles you took off .?And there was this one. Guy started @ 9am & was still there @ 10.30pm that night to do 4m2. This is the result the customer got:
After removal of the tiles I noticed some areas were packed to at least 25mm with ready mixed addy. The plasterboard had been attempted to be stuck to the brick wall with a 50mm cavity with ready mixed too.
He stuck the tiles to painted existing tiles
I started @ 9am, removed both sets of tiles, re-sheeted, tiled, grouted & siliconed by 3pm. God knows what he was doing to be there that length of time. Customer even bought him a chippy @ 7pm as they felt bad for him.
Heres the end result with Milford Cream I think it was
