Called out to replace a couple of tiles that were cracked (not quite through to the glaze) on a kitchen floor.
They had 4 spare tiles so took the job on.

Non modified adhesive built up to 45mm in places on to unprepped asphalt. Did the job and left them my card as I am quite sure
they'll be needing my services in the future.
 
Nice one Nick, bad practice like that will see you into your retirement, and me.:lol::lol:
 
How many bags of addy must have been used if its 45mm in places!!!!!! That's not even half a square meter a bag!
 
35m2 in total but the owner reckons it's only been built up for the last 10m2 or so!

Prep - wrong
Adhesive choice - wrong
Fixing method - wrong
Result - failure
 
Sounds like quite a few jobs on here, wrong, wrong, wrong, but do they listen.:mad2:
