    Default sloppy window

    these are pictures from a bathroom i have to re-do in january!

    this was done 2 years ago and the guy who done it as you can see decided not to level the room(as seen on window sill corners)and make a total mess under the sill,apart from that the tiling throughout the whole bathroom is to a very high standard,just goes to show how being careless for a few minutes can make an unhappy customer and cost you money in later years

    LOl. I work a lot with a plumber and he doe's my cuts for me sometimes. He gets the right hump when I hand it back to him because he's cut it 1mm either side of what I asked. Oh how we argue

    Ps is that a large trim under the cill? Urgh

    it really is a shame as the full bathroom is getting re-tiled because she no longer has the tiles to sort it and can't get them anymore,as i said great job apart from the window!
