[QUOTE="Rookery, post: 657650"] I went to price up a job last night, a recommendation from a previous customer of mine. Builders did some alterations 12 months ago. Bathroom 1 - ceramics dot n dabbed straight onto chipboard. Its failed. Bathroom 2 - ceramics dot n dabbed straight onto chipboard. Its failed too, I can lift some tiles with my fingers. En-suite - Acrylic shower tray rocking in 1 corner when you stand on it, probably the leg not tightened up. Its caused the silicone to pull away from the junction of wall and tray. Also the corners are only siliconed half way up, the top half is grout and its significantly cracked. A few other minor issues - 1 WC pan has only one screw in it, the other side being filled with silicone. They'd tried to hide this by siliconing a screw cover cap on. The other WC pan screwed down but an offcut of some blue plastic used to prevent the screwhead damaging the pottery. In other words a bit of a botch up. Neither W/B pedestal screwed down and the tiles behind both pedestals poorly cut and pieced in to save drilling holes for the feeds. There's probably more to be uncovered as the job progresses.
