Gary,

If that photo with the pencil doesn't demonstrate what "lippage" is for a prospective customer, then I don't know what will! YIKES!:yikes:

dont know mate its a foreign builder, the bathrooms are truly bad ,lovely devlopement but the finishing is poor just hope they can sort it ,the bathrooms need completely retiling and those ugly shower bases have to be removed and shower trays fitted, i will posts pics when they have finished the snagging in fairness to see if they can do a good standard

Re: Hall of shame....

Not a major bad one as easily rectified. Did a job last year, wedi wet tray. Noticed that the tray seemed to have a lot of movement, after being installed by plumber : found out he had stuck it down with silicone.
Got plumber back to lift it, once lifted I noticed that he had also not put enough supporting joists or plywood to support tray.
Photo 1 shows newly laid ply over new joists on left and right hand side shows remnants of silicone he used to stick down.
Photo 2 shows My bed of adhesive ( keraquick & latex ) prior to fixing tray

Re: Hall of shame....

Any photos of the Wedi tray after you reinstalled it? We don't see Wedi trays over here but I have used so much of the Wedi panels that I have a real interest in the shower floors. One of my retailers tried to bring them in and get some interest generated, but I think they never sold even the one they brought in as a demo model.
