Employment is a relationship between two parties regulating the provision of paid labour services. Usually based on a contract, one party, the employer, which might be a corporation, a not-for-profit organization, a co-operative, or any other entity, pays the other, the employee, in return for carrying out assigned work. Employees work in return for wages, which can be paid on the basis of an hourly rate, by piecework or an annual salary, depending on the type of work an employee does, the prevailing conditions of the sector and the bargaining power between the parties. Employees in some sectors may receive gratuities, bonus payments or stock options. In some types of employment, employees may receive benefits in addition to payment. Benefits may include health insurance, housing, disability insurance. Employment is typically governed by employment laws, organisation or legal contracts.
We had our kitchen tiled last week and we're not at all happy with the work. The tiles aren't level, the spacings all the over the place, trim looks terrible, no expansion gap between worktop and tiles, grout not silicone between worktop and tiles, grout is varying shades of grey, tiles not...
I'm currently dealing with the contractor from hell who has ruined job after job in my house. The latest installment is the bathroom tiles. The tiler came in and threw the tiles on the wall and floor; no spacers used, different space between every single tile, rough adhesive, squint tiles and...
We had our loft bathroom done a month ago and are having issues with the tiler (recommended on a local Facebook group, he also sent us pictures of his work). He quoted us a price without seeing the place or the tiles, but I sent him pictures of the bathroom (we had another tiler come around who...
My mum is having her bathroom fitted and she sent me some photos and my partner pointed out that several things weren’t looking great. I spoke to the contractor and he said we didn’t know what we were talking about and that he’d been in the trade for 30+ years and told his fitter to carry on...

Had my bathroom ripped out and plumbers first fix at weekend. Tiler I had turned up Sunday. Did an hour and half. Did half a wall that looked a complete mess. I tried to put it right but couldn't. Me and my missus decided they would look horrendous and got rid of the tiler. No one could come at...
Hi All.
I am a new member.
I have completed a short tiling course at College and I have also shadowed an expierenced tiler. I have now bought all the tools needed for tiling.
I am based in Leeds and now looking to start taking on small tiling jobs to start with. Where can I advertise and...
Hi All , I am trying to build a shower cubicle using the tray in the picture (super heavy ) at the corner here.
There are a couple of things i wanted to get some advice on before doing something wrong.
There will be a stud wall (orange ) and a glass shower door (blue)
What do I line the shower...

En-suite - replaced toilet, sink and shower cubicle. Tiled wall and ceiling.
Main bathroom - tiled floor and walls, replaced sink, toilet and bath (regular bath to L shaped shower bath).

Hi all,
I am hoping someone here can help me. I had kitchen tiles installed on Monday, and I’m really not happy with the finish. The grout lines are uneven, the plug sockets have been put back on crooked (I checked with spirit level to make sure my eyes weren’t tricking me), the tiles don’t line...
Hi! Could I get some advice on my tiling? It's just been done last week by a tiler by trade but my builder who does everything says that he could have done a neater job and that he's surprised by the level of finish and pointed out some clumsy areas.
I'm now worried that my tiler did a bad job...
Hey guys,
Just some ramblings here. I hope I'm posting this in the correct part of the forum.
I'm a desk job guy wanting to switch careers. Stuck in my current job, dreading to go to work, etc.
I've done a few tiling jobs for friends and family and it has been very fun to do. I love the...
Hi,
I’m not a tiler - which is why I have one in working away on my new kitchen floor! However I struggle to see the floor lasting very long due to the amount of void under the tiles.
I raised my concerns with the man in charge of the project who said the tiler has since explained that he will...
Posted a couple of times for advice a few weeks back, the outcome of which was to scrap my plan to tile over the old bevelled tile kitchen splashback, and to rip out the old tiles and start from scratch instead. The old plasterboard ripped off with the tiles so the job also entailed screwing in...
Hi all,
I’ve recently had my shower tiled and am very unhappy with the result. As the tiler was putting the tiles on, I told him that I was unhappy with it but he said that he would make any last tweaks before he grouted. He made some changes and then finished the job and it’s shoddy. I’ve paid...
We had a contractor tile some of the walls in three of our bathrooms with white subway tile. It looks unacceptable to me; the edges at the corners of the walls are sharp on both sides - he did not use curved tiles. We have other areas in the bathroom that were previously tiled with the same type...
Good evening
Looking for some advice I have been tiling for a few years know but tend to stick to 600x300 size tiles and below when installing. I have a job where I need to install 1000x600 large porcelain tiles 10mm thick.
I intended to use cement based tile board on the walls, can I use a...
