On a side note, why did you tile the walls if they were in such a bad state? and bonding coat, you shouldn’t tile on.

I agree with you, to be fair I should have walked from the beginning. hindsight is a wonderful thing though. They weren’t shocking, just not great, I told the guy it should be skimmed to which he agreed. As I haven't dealt with back bonding, before I began the job I spoke to him regarding the bonding And specifically asked him if the plasterer agreed it was ok to be tiled on. Maybe a bit naive of me, but if a plasterer says it’s fine to tile on then I’ll take them at their word. Lesson learned

But he’s a plasterer, and your a tiler!

It also doesn't look like it's had primer on it to me.

If it doesn't sound right check with manufacturer's . Be adhesive, plaster,backerboards,ufh etc and dont accept unless you have it in print .

...and £250 for 2 days including materials?
You're selling yourself WAY too cheaply!

Sounds like a load of tosh on their part, but i'd play ball, be polite and entertain them.
Can't imagine anything will come of it.

Plus, I very much doubt your Liability Insurance won't compensate anyone for poor workmanship

Liability insurance wouldn't even cover you for damaging a bath whilst tiling. Definitely won't get involved with accusations of poor work.

I like the fact they want his insurance details as if they could contact them direct to claim

Why won't it....?
Mine did when I drop a hammer and chipped a bath..
That's what it's for..... life's little accidents.
