Jobs ready...

[Flintstone]

So, I went to a job last week that had been skimmed and it was terrible, the walls were shocking, could get your fingers behind the level. So, the plasterer has been back to rectify it, told him and the customer it needed boarding, customer just sent me these pics saying he's finished,

Last pic is the kitchen ceiling below where they took bath out but didn't cap pipes off lol

U know the old Chinese proverb

[Flintstone]

Ile leave them sort of jobs to the monkeys

The home owner says, he can't afford to change it now, would you tile on the bonding ?

 

[Kyle Knowles]

I'm only 29 mate when I was younger a didn't know better I've tiled over all kinds of rubbish and luckily never had any issues but these days I'm a bit of a akward so and so

Could be worse, walls had been skimmed and pulled a tile and this....

 

[Flintstone]

The lad has two kids, not sure I want to be putting 600x300 porcelain onto that bonding over his bath.

Plus, I'm sure the walls will still be rough

Over board it your self for the sake of a few sheets of plaster board and 20-30 quid if the weights not an issue. I would for piece of min atleast.

 

[Flintstone]

Nice. To be fair, multi finish not really suitable for tiling. As to your images, this why I use fibre mesh on all walls, on every single job at preps wherever need to be tiled . if I know the contractor always ask for not to plaster the bathroom unless it's not fully tiled walls

What fibre mesh on walls ?

50m roll check in builders depot. 35quid a roll. /1 m wide. Always have it in my car.

As for preps, using ultra tile primer 2.5 l, then mix it in the flexi rapid adhesive too and mesh all walls. Nothing ever came off. If you need take tiles back off.. you re in trouble
