I have had a bad day.

Dont worry about it mate,
easy to say i know,i did a complete bathroom floor to ceiling a few years ago,client chose tile etc,i was polishing off and cleaning up when she told me she hated the tile and wanted to choose another one.i got a cheque of her had it cleared rapidly.told her to get her builder to demolish it,reline bathroom then we will begin again.

A WEE BIT OF ADVICE HERE!!!!!

When i quote jobs i always put ( TILES AND GROUT COLOURS CHOSEN AND APPROVED BY CLIENT)

they then have to sign and date the quote.Still a pain the *** when you got to undo your own work but not worth a heart attack stressing about it,trust me , been there and done that.

Cheers. Andy

Enduro, at least you're going to get bad to tear it out and redo it.

One of my buddies here is currently in a jam because the customer hates the installation he did and wants him to redo everything on his dime. She says his workmanship is fine, she just "hates the tile". She chose it, along with the decorator. She doesn't have a leg to stand on, but in the meantime my friend is in a jam because the builder is raising hell with him and the homeowner is screaming and is just plain nuts. She has enough money to bleed everyone dry if she decides to fight about it long enough.

When he said "how was I supposed to know you wouldn't like the tile that you chose and bought, once I had it installed?", she said "You're the professional---you should have known what this would look like". :mad2:

You can't fix crazy, nor can you fix pure-nutso clients.rrr:

Jeez, look at the typo...too late to fix it.

I meant to say "Enduro, at least you're going to get paid to tear it out and redo it..."

Somehow, I can do fine finish work, but I can't type on this stupid keyboard!:mad2::lol:
