    Bathroom being installed - poor tiling?

    This is why you shouldn't let the plumber do the tiling. Very rough, strip out and restart for a proper job. I am fairly confident to say he will miss his level lines (grout joints) above the window and the door.

    Bad Tiling where do I stand?

    Be careful as plastering is ment to be left for 1-2 weeks for it to fully cure prior to tiling. I would recommend leaving it for a couple of days (no heating in room) and then use a heater after two days to insure it is fully dried out. If you use a heater or dehumidifier too soon the plaster...

    first real complaint, advice appreciated

    Sorry to hear you got in a bit of a mess. Personally think the customer is a chancer. Seems to be a bit of confusion with insurance... Public liability- you cause an injury at work to someone else, typically the public, flood someone's home etc Indemnity insurance- bad workmanship, you...

    3D PORCELLANOSA TILES

    1mm joint should give you a bit of play, should you need it. You will need to be fairly accurate with your cuts having said that. Personally I would grout it white, would help blend in with the 'wavey' effect. Only thing with butt jointing is you need to be 100% bang on. Even a little off would...

    New bathroom install, questionable tiling, advice needed!

    As has been mentioned previously poor tiling. If I was to fix that job I would insist on stripping it out and starting again. The main contractor you hired is responsible for this, as it was him who sub contracted the tiling out. If he does or doesn't get money from the previous tiler or has...

    Is this an acceptable edge cut?

    That is good because it means they will be responsible for the guys that they sub contract I.e tiling, plumbing etc Hope you get this sorted out. Let us know how you get on and best of luck!

    Is this an acceptable edge cut?

    Having taken the time to thoroughly read through the thread. I would personally refuse point blank to give any more payment over. Pick the parts of the job (worse parts) that you want redone. Give them the chance to redo it. If they refuse, moan about it or leave a mess again. I would go to a...

    Is this an acceptable edge cut?

    I can't be the only one that free cuts these? I don't dream of scrubbing them 1st. Anyhow as mentioned above it isn't an acceptable finish. If the tiler had any pride in his work he wouldn't have left that finish in the 1st place. Hope you can get it resolved, best of luck!

    That awkward moment...

    Absolutely first class job. Can't believe my plumber has been doing it wrong this whole time! That hiding pipes stuff is well over rated! Spark used plastic trunking all down the hallway! Rather than raggle out the walls and hide the cables. Don't think they will see their 1st Bath before the...

    That awkward moment...

    split face tiles mitreing?

    I would really like to see a picture of this done. Even cutting a simple bevel metro tile on a 45 is pretty much impossible, and that only has a 'bump' in the middle of it.
