a bit of my work to date...

[Mr Tiler]

clearly you have site experience mate.... so why are you saying that it is me that does any plying? if you work on site you know what happens on site and on site its the chippy that lays the plywood not the tiler and who dictates what goes where on site? its not me and it certainly isnt my boss... i am guessing from my experiance of many sites across the midlands today that 6mm ply is used evreywhere. (chipboard floor on a brand new house.... at least it does get ply rather than straight onto chipboard, and this is by no means done on any private job we do at least i am honest and not full of it like the half of you bull****ters on here)... tubbed addy on painted walls?????? lets hear here who hasnt done that? nobody im guessing cuz ur all full of it and up your own brown peices

 

[Mr Tiler]

beside the point Ash, I'm not saying you have to cowtow to people with more experience than yourself, certainly debate because that's what a forum is all about, but do it in a respectful manner please.

Ash, I still tile to painted walls & sometimes I still tile to 6mm ply, that's the way some company's are, they have been told but they won't listen & at the end of the day it won't fall back on me as I'm the just the subbie.
It's not right but what can you do at times?

Even you apologise for your outburst in the other thread. .....which imo you were well out of order.

Nice to see you have calmed down in this one. Maybe your comment would of been better off in the correct thread and not in this one a week later. .

 

[Colour Republic]

Ash just how many sites have you worked on? To gain the vast site experience like?

yeh mate thats the point i was trying to get across lol but it was a bottle of rum and a bottle of bacardi later lol. apologees for the language used as i sat here hammerd and furious haha

When I say to painted walls it's a splash back above a sink or a couple of tiles round a bath onto new plasterboard with a **** coat of paint that ain't going to come back off.
I wouldn't ever tile to a skimmed wall that's been painted as you are asking for trouble then..
