toilet wastes

[tiler tom]

Tile stile has a good point. There have been a couple of occasions that I have had a leak one solely down to the condition of the toilet that had beed botched with tons of Silicon and when it leaked the condition of the toilet was pointed out and the customer had no option other than get it replaced. I tend to loosen the fittings and slip tiles behind sinks but toilets are so cumbersome trying to cut round wastes that I remove if possible. Each too there own.

It's nice have no toilet or sink in but at the end of the day most are fitted and you have to work round them if you have no plumbing experiance.

Tilestiles made a valid point there.!..

Make sure you are covered by your liability for all aspects of your work.....

And if you are not competent with plumbing then don,t do it....

Leave it to those who know what they are doing.....

It,s always wise be on good terms with a plumber , then you can give each other

work...and no probs with toilets etc.....

Cheers for the pm mate,

I see exactly what you mean. I guess plasters etc just dont think it matters if the customer doesnt notice.

The thing with plastering is it can be difficult for a customer to see any imperfections untill it come to painting or tiling etc. which magnifies these things. Mostcustomers would never think of putting a straight edge across the work on completion and even if they did they would probably be told,

'the tiler can tile over this'

Pass the buck! lol

Totally agree with Tilestiles,I'm a tiler not a plumber.Not insured for plumbing disasters.I can easily cut round a toilet neatly in a few minutes,quicker than removing and re-installing.
Whatever works for you.
