I'm not gonna get involved with the tiling comments. Agree with some disagree with others. However, as a plumber who tiles I will frown upon the isos on the shower pipe work. You've left a big hole around the pipes which you'll have to pump full of Silicon before fitting the exposed valve. Personally, you have no excuse for not isolating the water supplies and making these a neater 18mm hole.

Other than that, it's far from the worst I've seen. Snag it with the client, get it done and get paid.

that's true ive seen worse

but if you read

Two days so far

so m8 have u allways worked on your own.
have u never thought of teaming up with a local tiler.
I teamed up 18 mths ago with a plumber, we have done over 30 bathrooms in the past 18 mths and have 7 booked in over the next 9weeks and were both making more than when we worked separately bri still puts his boilers in when im on my tiling days and im doing other things when hes doing his 1st fix . Mondays and Fridays we work together as mondays we rip out and Fridays is finishing and polishing

I work with a heating engineer who hates bathrooms. His plumbing is first rate and he trained as a joiner too. I like to think my tiling is pretty good and between us for the past 8 years we've knocked out work we're both proud of. we make a good team.

Sounds like a good set up, and is ideal if you can keep a good flow of work, and have a reliable supplier of everything you need. Who was getting the bathrooms jobs in, yourself or the plumber?

Him initially but now it's more 50/50 - all high end stuff and purely on recommendation (which I reckon is the best way)
