    Do you take a deposit?

    i ask for deposits on nearly all jobs regardless of size, there was a period of a month last year when iw as really busy and didnt ask a few for deposits and hey ho it raised its ugly head again and one went elsewhere and another started mucking me about so for me the deposit upfront works.

    Customer From Hell

    nice work phil, are the planks from fired earth? i also find a lot of these people think trades are the scum of the earth, generally i bite my lip on these jobs and at the end of the estimated job cost add on a lump sum for the extra materials i had to use. give them a taste of there own...

    Knauf 6mm aqua panel boards

    hi mike i only use aquapanel 6mm sheets, personally i prefer them to hardi boards...yes they feel very brittle /flexible but once bedded into adhesive and screwed down and set you will find the product changes and is a very solid base to tile from...try getting one up once fitted its not much...

    2 week tiling course

    ok doug, well if its a course provider with a good reputation yes i would say its worthwhile to learn something but youll need to back it up with more than 2 weeks to go alone, can you do a bigger course? start with friends and family jobs?

    2 week tiling course

    hi doug, if youve been labouring for a tiler for some time then thats a start, if your wanting to learn the trade why dont you ask the tiler to teach you ...show him your keen to do more than just labour would that be possible?
