Working

heres a little video of some site tiling being done.
trowelling out an area of a wall and fixing tiles without spacers etc working down from the datum line....just gives some people on here an idea of how fixing techniques vary and can help your speed increase.

I'm watching on my phone so its hard to see but i was wondering if he has used a mosaic trowel??
 
It all depends on the site agent etc, I've worked for firms that just wanted the job done, no prep nothing & I've walked. Working for the company I have been with now for 4 years & they moaned at me to start with as it wasn't the way their last tiler did it. I sat them down & explained that the way I do it is the right way.
Another house builder we do work for actually got the contracts manager of a large tiling firm that they also use & showed them our work & told them straight that the quality of workmanship has to improve. We won 2 awards with that company & that's why they keep giving us more & more work.
I will never compromise the quality of my work for anyone, someone has to live in that house & even if the rest of house has question marks on it at least I know my tiling is bang on!!!
