    Here we go again

    Thanks for the help on the other posts. I am expecting this to go sideways as the builder has now quoted a NHBC regulation at me for the standard of the tiling "for my records" 😬. "overall variation in surface level of wall and floor tiles ± 3mm maximum deviation from a 2m straightedge with...

    Acceptable standard

    How to rectify, or just picky?

    Hello, Sorry for another one of these threads, professionals might enjoy this. Where would I start to rectify this? I'm going to try to hold my ground and say the entire install needs to be addressed, rather than just the shower trays. Generally it's all a bit lippy, pinholing, grout gaps...
