I was in Maidstone today picking up some ditra from CTD.
Exactly! Makes it worse doesn't it?
And about the same for NoNails looking at that - they would probably had more joy using Nails.
How do these people get away with it.
I've just heard via a customer of mine who recommended me to their friends to do a bathroom. I couldn't fit it in when they wanted, while away on holiday, so i didn't get the job. They got someone in who could start straightaway and guess what. The floor is lifting and cracking already after 3 months (tiles directly onto chipboard) and the walls leave a lot to be desired apparently.
If they'd have have waited 6 weeks I could have done it, now it's more than likely going to have to be ripped out. Can they get hold of the tiler now. Can they hell!!!!

They are in the process of compiling information to give to trading standards. The company is called REMOVED. The labour costs alone were £2500!!! I've given the floor the full hardibacker treatment etc but then noticed a lot of the walls are just hollow when you tap them, but they really don't want to start taking the walls down aswell. I have a feeling they might not have much choice soon.

Disgusting workmanship. I just never get the lack of a conscience, how could you walk away from that. I worry about the slightest things that no normal person would even spot!

If the walls sound hollow that,s an accident just waiting to happen,they certainly used a mish mash to stick the tiles it makes you wonder how many more jobs they have bodged.
