bowed tiles

[afright]

I always inform the customer as soon as I start fixing them if they are bowed and ask them if they want me to carry on,that way you cover your back,if the tiles are fixed the buck stops with you.

In my opinion, the tiler must always inform of the situation. Even if he purchases the tiles or the client does it. It is typical that the larger the format the more inconveniences like this present themselves. I would recommend the tiler to figure it out for his client and to keep track of that material. These are situations that will continue to arise if not dealt with in a professional manner before placing the first tile. Would try and understand the client do ( all he has done is pay ). Maybe re-negotiate the job and check the next pieces before proceeding. Best of luck

I never quote without the tiles being there or going to the supplier for a look before quoting, I normally just place two tiles face to face and if you can see daylight between the tiles on the edges or down the middle the customer is informed and they are either stacked or new tiles are chosen.
