[DHTiling]

Some might remember this thread posted over the weekend, customer not happy with the work turned out by a tiler..


http://www.tilersforums.com/new-members-say-hi-here/60365-hello-county-durham.html


well i have been out and it is megga rough... joints are 1mm and all over th eplace and more lippage than mick jagger.

2 wetrooms on to gyvlon and NO tanking what so ever.. tiles are all dot and dabbed and and big gaps to ceiling cuts and wonky corners and lippage..


bare with me as i post the pics from my mobile..


2 ticks..

 

[DHTiling]

As you can see in first few pjcs , cuts to the ceiling are appalling.

This is around 120 Mtrs floor and possibly 40 ish walls.

just how do they get jobs :mad2:

 

[Ian]

Quite special ain't it! Chuck some grout in, it'll be fine :lol: Are you going to redo it for them?

 

[DHTiling]

You will see by the wetroom linear drains and bottom cuts not fixed that there is zero tanking in the wetrooms and tiles packed up over an inch..

I don't think i can do it quick enough for them, so said i will help where i can to find a tiler... i am going to pass on TJ... the only tiler in my area i would trust with it ..

 

[Tony73]

don't worry, when you put towell rail on, vanity unit etc. nobody will see enything :mad2:

 

[White Room]

Thats going to cost to sort out.....I really don't know what to say or where to start to be honest, the pictures speak for themselves.

 

[suave]

nice :yikes:

I can't understand how anyone can turn out work like that and think its acceptable. What a turd! Feel sorry for the customer and I'd shoot the builder too.
Is it a new build or a refurb Dave.

 

[nybor62]

one of the worst ive ever seen that dave, gets me so angry im with out work at mo and so called tilers are turning out that rubbish
i could scream

 

[DHTiling]

These pics are just a very small sample of what the job is like.. you really have to see it to believe it... worst i have seen in a long time..

The builder recommended the tiler on a whim.. it is a refurb to a bungalow with a new extension as well..

I look forward to seeing it in the flesh on Thursday. Looks delightful.......

What I don't understand is how they've let him get so far along with the job without saying anything. With work that bad they should have given him the boot within a couple of days. The builder has to be partly responsible too for not pulling the idiot.

 

[DHTiling]

The floor was covered up and it was when the wall tiling started that they saw the lippage etc, then uncovered the floor to see that was the same...hence they stopped him.

must have been done by a butcher from them parts i feel gutted for the owners

 

[DHTiling]

Dave, they are proper gutted, and I hated to see their faces as I explained how bad it was and the bombshell of no tanking in the Wetrooms.

 

[John Benton]

Truly shocking, like Rob says, he's struggling for work and nuggets like that are coining it in churning out rubbish to customers.

Sometimes you've got to question the customer as well. If they don't do the required background investigation into a tiler or any tradesperson for that matter then they are partially to blame. Or is it a case of them trying to find these tilers who are sticking them on for £8 a metre, cos I'm guessing thats what you get at that price!!!!

 

[Diamond Pool Finishers]

Well i hope you and alan can put something down in writing for them to pursue the perpetrators and get some money back, or towards the rectification of the job itself Dave

 

[radim]

shocking.it is not a tiler. I wonder if he would accept it in his own house.

[Andrew Case]

I remember the original thread over the weekend. I think its the one where i suggested they try a small claims court to recoup some costs. It would be a long road, but would hopefully stop him from doing this.
Im yet to go on my course, but i would rather waste money on a course and never touch a tile again than do work to a standard like this. I can imagine the home owners faces now, the disappointment etc. Just not on.

 

[cam_low]

Dave if TJ needs a hand, give me a heads up.

 

[Daveshadowman]

That is bad how do these "tilers" get work. o i know they under cut all the good lads by that much they get the job then run for the hills
