Tanking price

Tilers Forums Official Sponsors

If it's fitted correct then it would be ok but I find the plumbers leave too much Silicon on the top edge & leaves you with a lip at the bottom of the tile.
I don't find that an issue, maybe because I've explained to all the plumbers I work with exactly how I want the classi deal fitted and so far so good🙂
 
Boarded and waterproofed in about 4 hrs (photo shows not finished).
I charged a lot more than 200quid for the prep though!

I charge £50 above a bath and £90 for 3 sided shower for materials. Labour is £40 for a bath and £60 for shower enclosure walls. I personally prefer to install Marmox boards (and Marmox waterproof tape for joints up to 1.2 metres above bath/ tray). Favourite tanking kit currently is Tilemaster, but it depends where I buy materials, regularly use BAL and Ardex systems.
 
Half 8, prime it, cut the tape to length, by 9 your tanking, half 10 your out the door
Some tanking kits specify 2 coats and for the first coat to be touch dry, so 4 hours is about right for that. 2 hours about right for one coat.
 
I use tilemaster kit and that's a 2 coat job, first coat dries to touch within 10 mins! Not sure about other brands
