Hello all, I have just taken the tiles off the wall behind my sink and some plaster has come off (see pics). Please could someone recommend a product to repair ready for the new tiles? Many thanks

Had a tiling company in to get rid of some glass wall mosaic tiles, redo with green ones. In the process of removing the old they’ve damaged the ceiling (see photo - it’s some sort of plasterboard covered with waterproof paint) and have pumped in a load of Silicon to try and mask it. Actually...

I had my bathroom done in September and my floor tiles have movement in them and the grout is constantly cracking. I'm at my wit's end as this isn't the only issue I've had with the bathroom and the builders have been back out several times to sort things out. Most notably a leak from the...

Hi, I’m not a tiler - which is why I have one in working away on my new kitchen floor! However I struggle to see the floor lasting very long due to the amount of void under the tiles. I raised my concerns with the man in charge of the project who said the tiler has since explained that he will...

My newly tiled bathroom wall has presented a few issues in the last few days. Some of the tiles appear to be popping off with cracked grout lines and where this has occurred there is some bowing of the wall. I also have a tile in the bottom left corner that has cracked down the surface. This is...

Hi all, I’ve recently had my shower tiled and am very unhappy with the result. As the tiler was putting the tiles on, I told him that I was unhappy with it but he said that he would make any last tweaks before he grouted. He made some changes and then finished the job and it’s shoddy. I’ve paid...

My tiled bathroom floor is new but I have moisture seemingly seeping up through the grouting in some places. The affected grouting has taken on an orange colour with crystallised minerals of some kind in it. The floor is wooden floorboards, with some kind of baseboard on top (not sure of the...

I did try to research this - efflorescence? seems to be related to me having tried to clean the grout a bit so maybe just cement residue ? Disappears when wet, CLR did nothing. The tiling was done by the previous home owner who did a pretty rubbish job :(
