This will shock you all like it shocked me !! The customer had his ground floor tiled and ensuite by this clown ! i retiled his ground floor 1 week after this cowboy did it first. A nice expense for any person!! anyway the customer didn't want me to retile the ensuite,just clean a bit of the grout off maybe,anyway this is a few close up pics of it.

Thats so shocking. Tiles with lips, grout not cleaned off, tiles cut short and grout pushed in to make it look good!

Some times I'm at a job with porcelian tiles and wash them 3 or 4 times before they look the business. Its all about pride.

I couldn't believe it!! he just wanted me to try to clean off some grout in there,his ground floor was a mess too,grout stuck everywhere,lips like nothing normal and staggered joints everywhere, i re done it and brick bonded the 600x300 as he had laid them in straight lines ! i felt sorry for this guy and went easy on him on price.

Re: Hall of shame....

I was asked to go look at a floor that was tiled about 18 months...He said the grout keeps cracking in the joints...

Well i had a look and the tiles were all loose...so i said it needs re-tiling ..possibly wrong prep on floor...OK all priced and ready to go...

Turned up to the job and started to remove the tiles....:yikes:

They dot and dabbed onto 6mm ply...:mad2: and under the ply was 12mm ply layed straight onto the joists...the 12mm was original and should have never been tiled on ffs...

Re: Hall of shame....

So i advised that they do not tile the floor and they have gone for kardean in stead....but whilst there i had a look at his wall tiling....:oops:

And i know who this guy is who tiled it...:incazzato:and i had to tell the customer that the floor should never of been tiled and the walls were dot and dabbed as well...this i found out after a tile fell off as i was removing the floor tiles...
