hows this for tiling

[Stef]

Roughly 35m2 to tile & they want it brick bond. :mad2:



The floors ok said the builder.

 

[jay]

Now thats impressive .Darn those builders are good:mad2:

 

[Stef]

Jay, Thats about 28mm & they say the floors not too bad!

Typical builder thinking we are "Miracle Workers"

 

[Ian]

Nowt wrong with that! Bit of back buttering will square that up :lol:

 

[jay]

Builders made the tile choice for the customer.1cm mosaics then they might lip a bit

 

[Stef]

600x300 porcelanosa brick bond they say.

Need to get James Bond in to fix them then!! :lol:

 

[jay]

Just took another bo peep time you get the ready mix truck in to sort that floor shouldn't be far off the door tread height
goto say thats rough defo a contender for the R.A.G. awards (rough as guts)

 

[Stef]

Oh Jay it will be fun n games next week when he has to buy 30 bag of self level.

Thats a conservative estimate. :lol:

 

[jay]

If it was mine id grab 40 just to make sure,
you got to feel for the customer having to pay twice for a floor

 

[Gazebo]

Are you sure the builder didn't leave as a ramp for disabled access.?

Thats one hell of a slope.:smilewinkgrin:

 

[nybor62]

builders we love,em really, not. think off the extra money for doing the slc , or maybe builders will do it for you, !!!!

 

[Del W]

You might have to "ramp" up your price a bit.

 

[Andy Allen]

get the builders to level it, they will only use half a bag, full bag tops, spread it round 1mm thick, here and there, then tell you the floors spot on.......sorted!!!!!

 

[Gazzer]

A good tiler can get over that.....:mad2:

 

[peteablard]

Just dot n dab that corner it'll be fine:lol:

 

[John Benton]

If you look closely you'll notice that the floor is actually level, its's straight edge that's bowed. :smilewinkgrin:

Any chance you can get Rowdy Yates to come back and put his work right himself? Glad we do our own floors. Had a job a few years ago where the tiler took on more than he could chew so he just did the screeds and gave the tiling to us and my boss incorrectly assumed he was good with concrete and tiled the floor without checking the fall to the drain, big mistake, he said we should have checked his work before we tiled so lifting and replacing tiles in 3 wetrooms was down to us, my boss tried to argue he should have checked floor before he handed over to us. In the end we lifted them, let him sort floor then we replaced the tiles. Important lesson learned for my boss, I even check his screeds before I tile now...

Change to mosaics, lol.
It'd then leave the feel of walking up and down hills.

Yeah "US" this week sometime,

This floor is better than the last 3 Barn conversions we have tiled for them. :incazzato:

 

[merit]

we seem to take the brunt and customers then cry when we have to sort it out,how many times have you heard is it really needed

 

[swanman]

Use some level compound Ha Ha
