Did I get a bad tiler? Please help

[craigmmorq4]

Hey all

My first post. Just had my bathroom tiled - he isn't 100% finished yet as had to order more tiles. The tiles in one of the corners don't line up with the others.

See the image it's obvious they aren't Do I get the tiler to take them all off on that wall and ask if he will pay for the new tiles?


I've asked him via email and he says its something to do with the wall but I'm not convinced!

I paid him £100 to tile 4 m2.


Thanks all

Hi Craig

the tiles should line up around the corners, I cant see your pic so cant comment but yes one wall will have to be fefixed to line the joints up

This is the latest email between us

ME -Yeah I have I ordered 8 tiles just in case. The wall that were waiting for the extra tiles for the tiles don't line up with the other wall - I'm being a fanny but its going to annoy me! Will you be able to take those few tiles off and re tile them or will it smash them if you took them off?


TILER - I've only put those tiles on top of what was already on the walls, I can take them off and replace and yes they will smash, so you will need to order more if you want me to do that.

IMO it all needs to come off as the large gap on the corner is bad setting out and looks terrible.

 

[craigmmorq4]

Yeah theres not many tiles on that wall where it goes off.

Do I ask the tiler to pay for the new tiles as he says he will have to smash them off?

How do I approach?


Thanks all

 

[Gazzer]

[Stewart]
