Wall and Floor Tiling Advice for Kate the Mate

[Stewart]

Very poor workmanship! you must ask him to remove and redo......

 

[Ian]

Here is the repair he did to fill the corner,

Kate as i said a few minutes ago this really not acceptable. As you said you have paid good money for this and you expect a good job, and this, quite simply, is not.

 

[Kate the mate]

If I confront him and he disagrees with what I've said, do I pay him anything to get rid of him? What do I do? I don't want to end up over paying to get rid of him. Funny thing is he has been a very nice man so far.

 

[Stewart]

Don't pay another penny until the job is done correctly.

 

[Kate the mate]

I haven't paid him anything yet although we have bought all the tiles.

A lot of these blokes are very nice but unfortunatly you havent paid for a candlelit dinner with him , you have paid for a pro tiling job, which is what you havent got

he has refused to refix the tiles and his repair is unacceptable

remove him from the job and withhold payment untill he corrects the work to your satisfaction

 

[The Legend; Phil Hobson RIP]

Hi Kate, sorry but I have to agree with you, and my forum colleagues above. This work is not acceptable imo, basic setting out not good. You are paying for a professional job, this is not one. Insist they rectify this work at their own expense:mad2:

 

[faithhealer]

where are you at kate

 

[White Room]

If he finishes the bathroom you won't be happy and will probably suffer it because the cost of new tiles to replace............

Have a talk tomorrow, you are the customer, if they can't see it being that bad then they should'nt be putting the tiles on in the first place.

Kate you don't have to be confrontational, just voice your concerns, but DON'T back down all the lads and lasses on here will tell you that this is not a professional job, send him in our direction if he starts making excuses. Sorry to sound a bit harsh, but if you let this go you will be looking at it every day, and every day it will make you angrier until you rip it all down
