[QUOTE="Dan, post: 1221, member: 1"] The job should be done to BS especially if it's still classed as a site and there's no VAT in the new build labour and materials. The length of time sounds like a joke, I'm sure the guys wouldn't have been paid for three weeks worth of tiling in such a small area. The tiles don't always have to sit under the skirting, but they have to be cut pretty dam accurate and neat if they are not. There is a tolerance of different between tile height (unlike your patio slabs) tiles are cooked and can react to the temperatures differently and expand / shrink at different rates, this is usually accounted for in the tiling as you would simply 'bed' the lower tile to meet the height of the higher one. I don't know what you mean about the 6mm grout thing. Be all and end all, you have a right to request proof that the tiling is done correctly, listen to their explanations as to why all the things you don't like have happened and then check those out, and tell them you're checking them out to try and cut down on bullsh*cough*t. If it is incorrect, you can hold payment maybe for a certain amount, and get them to fix it, or at the least, ask them to repair the bad bits. Hope this helps so far. [/QUOTE]
