Opinions on this appalling "professional" tiling job?

Also remember that this is an international forum and Marvo is South African so his terminology and phases will be different and the written word can easily be misconstrued.

Nothing in writing from who? Problems for us in what way? I didn’t sign any contract with him and only have his quote which does not have any terms and conditions on.

So he just gave a verbal quote, not a written one?

Dude! Have actually read any of my posts? Give them another read.

I HAVE spoke to him, several times and for a final time over the phone to discuss exactly why we weren’t happy after sending all of the 70 pics above.

He definitely does not have to skill to put it right. So perhaps you could put on your sarcastic bellend pants and give me some more of your advice?

Geez, take a deep breath.

I read all your posts just fine, it was post number 31 in the thread where you stated he's an acquaintance which changed things somewhat in my opinion. That was the post I was basing my reply on hence I started it with 'If he's an acquaintance'.

Anyway, good luck.

“Big boy panties”

Love it.

It's a common phrase here, it means take the bull by the horns. I'm guessing from the reaction it caused it's not a phrase that's used in the UK.

To all, sorry! It’s a pretty stressful situation. But as I’ve stated, 80% of the worst offending work was all completed at the very end. He must have been leaving the most difficult parts, and we honestly thought that we could probably live with how it was looking by the end of the 2nd week, as at that point, he had not cut any of the edging tiles, or around the window. All the while he was assuring us that it would all be cleaned up and look good when finished.

I appreciate everyone’s advice. I was merely looking for opinions on the workmanship, as we just wanted to make sure we weren’t being “fussy” customers and our issues were justified.

PS. @callatiler Not sure I’ve been using a sharp tounge several times? It was just once. But hey ho. As I’ve said a few times now, I did call him out, a few times but (again, as above) he reassured us. It’s all very easy to on your side of the situation and just say “you should have stopped it” but it’s not a simple as that.

No, he provided a written quote.
