Hi all,
I have had a nightmare job I probably shouldn’t have took on. Called to a customers house and the previous bathroom installer has laid on a basic wooden frame. Mosaics on the bath panel and tiles along the top around the bathroom as a surround. 1 tile has broken and sunk slightly. It is also leaking.
I explained to the customer, that unless they wanted the entire bath ripping out and new frame fitting. That we could tank around the bath. Used Bostik shower https://www.tilersforums.com/forums/tile-adhesive/ and bostik grout, designed for swimming pools.
The edge of the bath was so out, I couldn’t lay the tiles flat properly even with packing the tiles out. It’s not my best work and I feel terrible as a result. They have used large format ceramics 60x30 to cover the old mosaics.
When I got advice from home (as you do) my dad said a more experienced tiler would never take on a repair job as you can’t really polish a t••d.
how would you guys of handled this please?
