Yes I will do. I've got about 30 of individual issues so it's hard for him to argue .Also try and keep photos, emails etc for proof just in case it goes to court.

Thank you. That's reassuring although some joints have no grout anyway. I'm sure it won't be too hard to remove them.In theory now its grouted he's put the lid back on the tub so will be ok for a few days, even if if has set wetting it with a sponge and scrapping it off won't take too long..
So are you saying he doesn't get the right to correct his own work .Thank you all for the really helpful advice I've spoken to Citizen's Advice this morning just for a bit of signposting to useful legislation and they've suggested as he didn't provide any terms and conditions, the cooling off period for a distance/off premises sale will be a year and 14 days, and I can cancel the contract for poor performance under the Consumer Contract Regulations 2013. He has also suggested I can claim compensation for new tiles, as I bought those myself, and for the time to remove his work and make good ready to retile as a minor breach of contract under the I'm guessing 1 day x his day rate would be reasonable in that instance. I will let you all know how it goes.
I completely understand that point of view and certainly agree that it should not be exploited. However, I have been advised that it is my best legal option to extract myself from the situation and to not require me to legally make any payments for what you have all stated is terrible work that needs redoing. I therefore don't think it is unreasonable for me to use it in this instance as I would not wish to pay anything for the work and do not see why I should have to. If it was rectifiable, I would be open to him doing so or making an appropriate adjustment to the invoice but you have all said it isn't fixable.I appreciate what you are saying regarding be able to work to a certain standard . But the advice you have been given is a new one to me and probably most people here also cancelling the contract after completion (although completed badly )doesn't seem to sit right.
