one was been finished when i was at the same house doing some work, all completed in two weeks from digging out the founds to tiling the floor,it was a botch ,but some customers dont know any different unfortunatly

The problem is that a lot of customers think that it is a good thing that it is done so quickly :mad2:
 
I was tiling on a new build extension around christmas time and the 4mtr x 4mtr timber floor was all over the place, just over an inch from one end to the other as there was also heating mat going down I ended up using a total of 14 bags of slc.
 
I've had 2 conservatories recently where the floors have been nothing short of terrible,much worse than the one above.Ive also done a kitchen recently which was 6 sqm where the builder got in someone special to screed it. I had to use 6 bags of self levelling just to be able to tile on it.I don't know how they could get it so wrong.
 
Some screeds are absolutely shocking. My first job of the year was 45m, which the builder had alreaday tried to SLC over the screed. Around 30m needed levelled and I used 14 bags for it. Ouch.
