What a rough as job..

[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.

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.

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.

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

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

DAVE its a shame that we cant name these so call tilers like they do on rouge traders on tv . we could have a black list and pictures of the so called work. for customers to look at .over the years i have seen a lot of this and think to myself that these cowboys are taking work form us and money from hard work people that put there trust in them to do a good job. ahhhhhhhh it makes me MAD...

 

[Andrew Case]

Thats a good idea. It would have to be qualified i.e someone had visited and taken photos etc, rather than just going on the say of a disgruntled customer. But if it was proven to be a dodgy job by a dodgy tradesman, then we could have a list here. Doesnt have to be in the general forum. That way you can protect yourself against a lawsuit for defamation or something.
