Landed a nice job today

[Ian]

Went to look at a job this morning in Nottingham, ultra modern house built in 2008 and a lot of the tiling has failed. Outdoor step, 4 balconies, some heated floors and grout haze all over the place. Some new tiling to be done in grade 5 800x800s, I thought to myself, 'a Sigma 3dm would be perfect for those!'. Spoke to the homeowner about what was needed, agreed a day rate as a lot of the old tiles are going to have to be cleaned up and reused and I said I'd get a new cutter for the 800x800s, her response, 'just add it to the bill!!!!!!!!!!'. So a FREE 3dm on its way to me in the morning! I feel a little dirty that I didnt get a TX900 to complete my set but, curiosity has got the better of me, so I'll give the Sigma a bash!

You lucky boy. Do you mean 'a lot of the old tiles are to be cleaned up and re-used' that they are to be removed and re-fitted as they have already failed? i.e. lifted and are loose, cos that will be a lot of work, good job you put a £200 a day rate in :drool5:

 

[Ian]

Some are up already just need the addy grinding off the back, some need lifting then grinding. There are a few spares but nowhere near enough! A couple of dusty days I think!

Welcome to the club Bri :welcome:

 

[Ken Bruty]

Nice one Bri, that Sigma is a seriously nice piece of kit, I'm interested in one of those myself. Do they come with a case too?

 

[charlie1]

No need for case tbh, they are very robust!
