    Poor quality work. What’s should I do?

    taking photos from 3 inches away is imo unfair, do you really walk around your bathroom with your head 3 inches from your tiling ? having said that, it's not the best tiling I've seen, but certainly not the worst, attention to detail is lacking, and it could do with a day spending on it to make...

    Porcelain floor tiles direct to screed on wet UFH without DITRA

    you don't need it, most tilers that insist on using ditra with everything are just trying to screw you out of more money..

    loose wire UFH...

    I've tried telling the customer all this, but at the end of the day that's all we can do, if he wants to go down the electricians route then that's up to him, all I'm interested in is whether or not it's suitable to tile too.

    loose wire UFH...

    it's the tape underneath the wire I'm concerned about, he says it some kind of insulation tape, to take the place of insulation boards, have you ever heard of such a thing?? 1572011730 I have to agree there, but this is what happens when a customer doesn't want to fork out on insulation...
