IMG_0138.JPG IMG_0832.PNG Couple of wetroom floors to be fixed in the coming weeks! Travertine wet area mosaics heated wire kit and no antifracture mat and yet to see if tanked. Ceramic tiled wetroom floor has piped underfloor heating layed into cement boards foil I think as customer told me, Durabase laid dry no adhesive or mechanical fixings, then 6mm plywood, laid dry no adhesive or mechanical fixings then tiles installed on top. :confused:

Are they both done by the same tradesman - unusual for 2 jobs being prepped the same way - durabase not fixed!
No John, the travertine one was installed pretty good Wedi, tanking etc only mistake was no uncoupling for travertine, yes tiler should have known better but seen worse, I know the tiler, was out of his depth. Whereas the one done by the Lone Ranger is one of the worst I've seen. Customer won't tell me who did it.
