You should pat yourself on the back for that mate. you look like you have made a smashing job of that. Im new to tiling aswell so if my first paying job turns out as good as that then i will be proud.
Well done again mate.

I read somewhere on the site about the construction industry failing to provide honest tradesmen and the fact that there are people worried about the amount of seekers and cowboys in the trades. After nearly ten years in roofing following an accident im retraining to become a tiler and i too was worried about the amount of cowboys etc but i must admit, after reading through loads of posts and threads i couldnt be more wrong. Im glad i joined up to this site and witnessed what good spirited people you all are. i wish there was a site like this for roofers when i was roofing cause ive seen work that would make a cowboy look good:8: :yes:

may i be really honest with you? looking at your pics tells me you will be fine in the long run,however,your family are p****ng up and down your leg. learn from it and in future price family work under mates rates.that way if you dont want it let them go elsewhere. but youwill be ok somenice work there well done!!

(It's a great feeling when it's finally done though eh?!)
