these rouge traders would never sue anyone coz if it did go to court it would easerly be proven that they are rubbish and taking money for substandard work. if cost go against you in court it would cost tens of thousands which they would have to pay .. they would run for the hilsl like they do once there paid.

The thing with these jobs I can never understand is how they're so bad. Surely if a tile is out of line you simply put it in line and pop a spacer in to keep it there. And if you've took the spacer out to fit an oversized cut in then you take a bit off the cut. I know plenty of rough tilers who don't take much pride in their work but even their work is passable, if not great. Those pictures have to be the work of someone who's never actually laid a tile or done any type of manual work whatsoever. In fact, I'd say that someone with zero experience in tiling could produce a better result than that by the end of the 110 metres.

Even that £8pm job I posted about a while back looked like some of Phil Hobson's work compared to this job. :lol:
