hi all,
It’s been a while!! I’ve now moved up to Leeds so am rebuilding my plumbing/heating business.
Anyway..
I’m quoting for a job to fit a shower which will mean stripping the partially tiled walls to retile them from bath to ceiling.
In my head I’ll have to remove the bath and...
Because the stupid shower they’ve bought isn’t compatible with the bar shower fixings that you can fix to the surface of the tiles :mad: yup, it has crap offset adapters as the valve has an internal filters you can’t remove that fit inside the offset adapters
Mine has ended up like this :mad: I was thinking of putting a couple coats of SBR over it, filling it with rapid flex and then tiling into that once dry???
They’ve tiled on bonding here. It’s an external wall as well :eek: and buried pushfit fittings within the bonding :eek::eek: and I’ve chipped the lower right tile on the internal corner :eek::eek::eek:

Just had the pleasure of spending some time today with @3_fall
I successfully cut 30mm slices off those 1200’s with my sigma after being shown how to use it and how NOT to lean on the tile while snapping it :D
Cheers @3_fall very much appreciate it mate
bought this badboy for a job I was doing, don’t like it. It’s still in original packaging and the cutter has been used twice to cut a few tiles.
