[QUOTE="ocall1919, post: 981368, member: 58301"] Hi all, I have had a nightmare job I probably shouldn’t have took on. Called to a customers house and the previous bathroom installer has laid on a basic wooden frame. Mosaics on the bath panel and tiles along the top around the bathroom as a surround. 1 tile has broken and sunk slightly. It is also leaking. I explained to the customer, that unless they wanted the entire bath ripping out and new frame fitting. That we could tank around the bath. Used Bostik shower adhesive and bostik grout, designed for swimming pools. The edge of the bath was so out, I couldn’t lay the tiles flat properly even with packing the tiles out. It’s not my best work and I feel terrible as a result. They have used large format ceramics 60x30 to cover the old mosaics. When I got advice from home (as you do) my dad said a more experienced tiler would never take on a repair job as you can’t really polish a t••d. how would you guys of handled this please?
