Default Thanks for the advice and support – pictures of the completed job.

I’d like to thank everyone that has offered advice and answered my posts in relation to this job.

As requested by Dave - here's some before and after photos.

It’s a full bathroom refurb. Flooring replaced with 25mm WBP ply, stud wall built to enclose soil stack and shower valve, electric UFH laid, 450x450 porcelain tiles with a travertine and glass mosaic border and a nice new bathroom suite and all my own work!


Thanks again.

Mark.

Hi Tiler,

It's not upvc quardant, it's silicone. The walls were tanked with a BAL WP1 kit. I know you advocate the use of membrane systems and they make a lot more sense to me too. I may try one on the next job.

Mark.

They are lovely holes! (Picture "after" number 2) of the victorian sink and waste pipe...

Did we have anything to do with that?

That looks top notch, Mark.

Is the suite form Bathstore?
Looks identical to one we installed just after new year.
