This was installed by a so called tiler/bathroom fitter. As you can see it was all ripped out. The shower trap was connected to nothing so the water would have poured through the ceiling, the shower screen was not fixed together so if the the customer leaned against it it would have separated which would have been very nasty indeed.
The white profiles in the corner are 20mm plastic? never saw that before.
He tiled straight onto the paint so the tiles just fell off quite easily.
20mm gaps from the wall to the floor, the floor was still wet after two weeks, he used ready mixed adhesive and grouted the same day, knelt in the shower cubicle to avoid kneeling on the tiles.
I saved the UFH but that was never going to work anyway as he didn't have a live feed to it nor did he have a switched spur anywhere in sight. Loo was bodged with Silicon as was the trap/waste on the sink.
The floor was not fixed down at all in an area of 3/4 metre, he had just left it, no inserts in his pushfit plumbing, the isolater for the loo didn't work. Plus as a leaving present he used an empty tub of ready mixed as a loo, dirty bugger!
Alarm bells started ringing after 3 days with the customer but he had a long list of excuses, oh and he charged £3000 of which he received an upfront of £1800.00.
CTD very kindly supplied new tiles at cost price but a full ripout was inevitable.
see what you think....
Picture of a nice bendy tile at the end lol
Just have to refit the loo, have to find some wingnuts as he lost them.
