Call today from builder, wanted a price to lay Mandarin stone (56m) heated screed not commissioned, no expansion joints in screed and said that durabase / ditra is a waste of time, he's never had a problem without it, told him I wasn't interested, he got quite vocal!
 
Better to walk away from work like that have it fail, builder blames tiler, then your name suffers.
I have walked away from couple of jobs this year for similar reasons.
 
Makes you wonder how many calls he has to make before he ends up getting through to a guy that just wings it?
