Hi guys and gals. Just finished a splashback and 3 walls in 4" tiles { hundreds of em! }

Customer very happy, and has asked me if I would like to lift and re-lay a bathroom come wetroom floor, slanting to drain, for a disabled relative, done by someone else in 1 day!
Seems to be black and white cubes of marble on a mesh backing which have turned a yellow/red rusty colour in 2 months, wide grouting and uneveness throughout.
This looks daunting as surely the mesh will burst during lift and possibly wooden floor beneath, and tiles will be unuseable. Brand new bathroom fitting in place too.
Have tried to explain this but he still wants it done as its a bit of an eyesore.
Advice please, its not been tanked,sealed or protected,so it's got gonna take more than 1 day.
How would you approach this, or would I be better walking away.

Help Thanks
Michael.
 
tell customer you will have to start from scratch , DO NOT attempt to put right somebody
elses bodge up. because his headache then becomes yours. start again or walk away is my advice. good luck!!!!!..
 
tell the cusomer its got to come up and re-done with new materials or you dont want to touch it
