No. The guy has already put his hands up and said he made a mistake.

The tiler I used was recommended by the tile shop where I got the tiles from. He might be great at tiling (who knows) but he sucked at SLC!
Heres where I am with this. The SLC needs scraping up. However it cant be scraped right the way down to the insulation board for risk of damaging the boards. Having tested this i think we can scrape off close to the board. The SLC is approx 6mm in deepest part, the lower bit close to board seems firmer then the top, which is reassuring.
We will then prime and re-pour SLC to correct mix. In fact this time we will use a 2 part latex SLC because it comes with premeasured bottle. The floor will likely be bumpy and rough as a result so Im looking an experienced guy to do this.
Heres the next problem. Whoever I ring and ask “do you have experience with SLC” the reply is always; “ yeah ive done a bit here and there” or “I’ll do it but im not that great at it”. One guy said to me “if you expect a perfectly flat finish , you better find someone else”.
What the hell??! Is this job harder than Im led to believe?
Is there anyone on this forum that lives in Hertfordshire that could help me out??

If no one in Hertfordshire can use a bag of self leveler there must be some serious dabbing going on round there..
