ive go to look at a job tommorrow

builder refitted two bathrooms, half way through second bathroom tiler had as his fill of the builder and jacked , builder said to the client that not to worry as his son will finish the job, his son failed to clean the grout off and they tried two days later and couldnt get it clean

apparently they tried everything including brick acid, from what I can gather the tiles are porcelain, but maybe ceramic. they are not stone but look like stone. in the end this builder had a tantrum and walked out because she insisted she wanted them cleaned off

as well as a black pad whats the best cleaner to use

this is one of my clients and she is not in the least unreasonable to deal with, she just wants things done right

I know the builder too and he is a nice bloke but a complete nightmare to work with, he doesnt listen and knows better than everyone else

his favourite expression is , what am I paying you for, why isnt it finished

I wont work for him again and im not surprised the tiler jacked
