Advice please. Tiles not flat.

Brinkley - I am the sort who gets very stressed about these things but don't want to say anything. Probably won't get much sleep until it is sorted out.

 

[Brinkley]

well i wouldnt worry as it is only cosmetic and can be fixed .
Talk to the architect and surely/hopefully he will share yours and our concerns totally unacceptable .
Leave the tiling to tilers you would be amazed by a good tilers finish .

Daz - Oh no. I am pretty sure that the tiling was put straight onto ply with no tanking (i presume this is some sort of membrane).

 

[Cutiecat]

Brinkley - thank you. I will just try to pass this on to the architect to deal with. That is why I am paying him afterall.

Sorry... Missed the fact that the substrate was ply. Daz is spot on with his advice........

I suggest that you do a few searches on this forum with regards to using ply in wet areas and different tanking methods as it will take me quite a while to duplicate info that is readily available here.

A solution can be easily achieved but it will not be a quick fix, I'm afraid.

Here's an idea.......

Can you send your architect to this thread? He may learn something!!

Hi Cutiecat and:welcome: this work is not acceptable, please don't loose sleep over it. Just let your architect know you are not happy, as you say that is what you are paying him for.

As above tilers tile, builders build, and ne'er the twain shall meet.

Hope you get it sorted

Daz - I am paying my architect to be my 'bad cop'. When it comes to techincal advice I usually check things out on forums too.

You have all been really wonderful . Off to make a calming Horlicks!
