cluster bodge job

[Cris]

hey all, don't know if im in right place but here goes. ive been asked to finish off 3 bathrooms 2 of which are wetrooms. all need ripping out and starting again.everying about the work done so far is wrong..... just need u lot to point everything out so customer doest think im pulling wool over their eyes...... large format tiles dot and dabbed with tub addy, no tanking on plasterboard walls, setting out.....list goes on. just look at photos

I'm not being funny but if you have to justify yourself and your customer doesn't trust you not to fleece them , I would just leave it and let them get another chancer and get the same result .
I'm not being arrogant because I don't get some jobs , I'm not saying I'm amazing it's my way or the highway with 2years work in front because it's not that way ,but I'm not starting a job/relationship with a customer who doesn't trust me . After all I take it you've been called in because it's failed

 

[Cris]

its not that she doesn't trust its the fact that she payed a fortune for the tiles and prob the labour and is way over budget on her project. shes hoping it can be salvaged. the builder in question has done a runner prob after his last installment

 

[Dumbo]

Have told her what needs to happen

Have told her what needs to happen

taking back to the bone. most of tiles could be saved with bit of time and effort

If you need us to convince your customer that that job is not only pathetic but dangerous are you sure you want to be redoing it for her. It was her decision to go with what was probably a cheaper quote in the first instance. Put a proper value on yourself and if they don’t like it it’s not your problem.
That job is horrendous.

Dabbed 15mm with tubbed addy with large format porcelain on wet plaster 🙈 The guy should be charged.

As @LEE MAC says do it dangerous or do it right

I did tell her seek legal advise

You're missing the point , you advise her she agrees or she thinks you're trying to rip her off .

look chaps.… ive told her it needs ripping out but shes hoping beyond hope it can be saved. she perhaps thinks im wrong so I came here to show her advice other than mine. I havnt come here to be ridiculed just another view other than mine. so some of you please wind ur necks in

I'm not trying to ridicule you , as a fellow tiler I'm trying to prevent you from getting involved in something that's not going to end well or you put a lot of hard work on the estimate to be told Bob from down the pub going to do it , he's a gardener but tells me he can tile

Who ridiculed you?

Cris, all the signs are there. You gotta get out of that house quick. Even if I had no work on my books I would not touch this job with a barge pole. I know you are only trying to help out the customer but you don't know what other issues/problems are lurking behind those tiles.

Titles been change, getting very pc 🙄
Doesn't have the same ring to it now 🤔

 

[Cris]

Apologies for my mini man rant...... Stress and all that goes with it 🙂. Yep, I walked away but not after I've given her all info she needs. There was a nice 80m floor to go with that too
