I do this ALL the time and then take photos with my phone camera.

I get weird looks in hotels, bars and gentlemens urinals as I photograph the poor workmanship,

Dodgy wall tiles in a cafe

Worst tiling ever. Picture shows an old fashioned style radiator in a hotel bathroom.

Just needs a lil bit of grout dont ya think.?

... I can now confirm that I am addicted to all things tiling..

I was out at a wedding reception at a hotel near Sandbach in Cheshire on Saturday night, and I went into the ladies loos during the evening, and stood looking at the poor workmanship. Edges were not flush with each other when the tiles went around corners, grout lines were not level in several places, tiles not flush with each other....

I think I'm getting sad in my old age.... :lol::lol::lol:

Good on you, fellow saddo

you poor poor girl!

tonight, i've been at my mums, taking photo's of her kitchen tiles that are coming away from the walls, and there's several holes where sections have already come down. all fixed with BAL products about 25 years ago (parents still have the buckets the adhesive came in!) and by looking at the plasterboard, I think it may have been PVA'd.... :yikes:

Mum and Dad refuse to have the whole lot taken off though I have pics too, will post asap...

Sad but putting learned knowledge to good use!

Well thats your 25 years worth then:yikes:

 

[mikethetile]

so 25 yrs aint bad going
