New job

[Stef]

Took on 14 new build flats today for a builder, been trying to get in with him for a little while.
Builder does high end work & is a good contact for me.
Spoke to the site agent today (he does a bit of tiling [emoji1]) & I was going over a few things like making sure painters kept paint off tiled areas etc.
He told me don't worry about it I just PVA it.
Gave him the full run down of why he shouldn't be using kiddie glue & then he tells me that when he's fixing large format he just dabs them on if the walls aren't great. [emoji15]

I had to decline a job in Dover, the bloke could'nt get anyone to do a porcel-thin down that neck of the woods and expanded his search, it's out there but like you say a lot of people still have never heard of them.
