I have been totally honest with the main contractor throughout this, and I have shown him this thread, well, up until about 6.00pm.
I would like to think he has gone home and been keeping a sly eye on it, it's his reputation at stake at the end of the day.
(I would have been keeping an eye on it, I work for myself, I repair, sell & trade in LCD and Plasma TV's & Parts, if I sell one and it goes wrong then I fix it, PERIOD. I have a good name and I would like to keep it that way.)
I have just printed the whole thread off, I will show it to him in the morning.
I expect the tiles to be removed and re-affixed correctly, I have no intention of taking any risks with it, I reckon it should cost £1800 at most to have 40 odd sqm of these fitted, that £40 per sqm, he's being paid £7000 or so for this job, so there's plenty of money to cover the cost of having it done correctly.
I will of course keep you all informed, and add the thanks necessary.

Rogue traders does not seem too far off the mark.
