Dave

joking apart - the only good thing about this (if there can be such a thing) is to show to those new at this game ( myself definately included) is that the money I spent ( about £2500) on my training wasn't wasted.

This could have been one of those that advertise - 'with 10 years experience - not a months training' - but if your experience has all been at this standard it means nowt!

Okay I only have a 4 week course behind me - but with 30+ years of diy experience- I would be ashamed to take money for this pile of crap.

I saw something similar done in a bathroom last year. Was called to do a consult on wether the whole thing had to come down or not. Aparantly two poles had done it, and they thought they had done a real good job, and were proud of it... They were present when I visited the place.

They had used like 12mm trowels on the walls, and managed to get like 40% coverage on 20x20cm tiles. On the tiles closest to where the doorframe was supposed to be, I could stick a pen in under the tile, like, all the way.

I almost felt sorry for them when I told them that their work was seriously botched, and that everything had to come down, as well as the floor, because they had damaged the UFH. There was a water leak as well, which they likely caused when they nailed a guide to the wall, using 5" nails... The list goes on...

Edit: And the leak had damaged the ceiling in the apartment below...
