You forgot the plasterers

Done my share of these jobs, best thing to do is yell "look over there" and then spread a load of adhesive on the floor. Doesn't stop them walking on your tiles though.:lol:

 

[trevortine]

Got to say this mob are actually pretty good, done a few for them before including footlocker and JD sports shops, fingers still crossed though!!

I'm with Tom!
There will be no one there , but there'll be an immovable tower scaffold for sure!

 

[Perry]

Opps you forgot the 60 ton off gear you will have move first :smilewinkgrin:

 

[wayne]

There will be no one on site until you lay some tiles and nip off for a drink. Come back and all the tiles have been walked on but none of them have done it

The job I'm on at he moment was meant to be a good one 'it's 1100m2 of perfectly level floor Pete' and 'it will be the easiest money you've ever made'..... Yeah right! It's a big department store and the floors are a nightmare! We've done 85m2 so far and there's nearly 40mm difference between the highest and lowest points. Tiles are 600 x 600 and it's turning into the hardest floor I've ever done. Apparently there's no budget for any prep work:mad2:

I had one in oxford street 6" hump in floor dived off 8" to the right up 4" to the left 70 mts long 600 x 600 2mm joints should of laid it level with a 6" step in the door way lol

 

[bugs183]

Nothing like encouraging words before a job eh!!!!

 

[trevortine]

Well as I guessed this job was a breeze, we went in sat morn, by five pm we had seventy odd metres down, went back on sun morn put in a few cuts and grouted, we were home for one o clockl!! Sun was shining so it was cider time!

 

[The Legend; Phil Hobson RIP]

Good result mate, and I thought it would be your typical shop fit. Nice one.

 

[Perry]

[Dan]
