Damp marks showing through tiles - TilersForums.com

Please see photo below. Not great light but sots best seen in the area of light reflection. Will they dry out. Tiler came with a plumbing team recommended by a reputable bathroom showroom.

It is spot fixed.. but at least he has tried to get good coverage.. most do the 5 spot technique.

Dot and dab, what a delight

The adhesive is powdered. Will it dry out like he said?

Possibly, but I'd have thought that after 36 hours that should already have happened.

nothing wrong with the adhesive he used and it looks like a tidy job. Just fixing method leaves a lot to be desired.

That said I can see trowel marks through the grout joints so whilst it looks like dot and dab from the marks i'm not 100% convinced myself.

To the left of the photo the pattern follows thru on to the wall.....
