[QUOTE="John Benton, post: 657678, member: 27051"] I remember doing a job for a lady about 6 or 7 years ago. She'd had a guy in who she got out of the Yellow Pages. Replaced the taps on bath and basin, make and tile a bath panel and tile floor. Sounds easy enough. First time she used the bath, down came the kitchen ceiling. I got a call as I used to do a bit of work through Bathstore and the customer went there to get the whole bathroom changed. When I went to look at it, he'd taken the bath out to put the taps on, broken 50% of the tiles above the bath and then just siliconed the broken bits back on. He had tile a bath panel but the reason the ceiling came down was the fact he had not connected the waste back up after having the bath out, and a full bath of water came through. The floor came up easy enough as he'd tiled directly on to vinyl floor. If the tiles had of been flexible I'd have just rolled it all up. :lol: When I spoke to the customer she said he had told her 30 years of experience and never been back to a customers in all that time.
