    Hi,
    Can I suggest Doozergirl please you stop commenting. as you are not providing any useful information.
    thanks

    I'm not providing information you want to hear, but I am absolutely laying this down for future people who will stumble across this post via the search facility and think this is 'another' cowboy builder post.

    In the same way am I allowed to suggest you don't bother repeatedly coming to this board and asking questions if you have no intention of heeding any of the advice provided by people who give their good time trying to help.
    Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.
  • thanks but still you are not providing any useful advice.


    anyway thanks for all the posts to everyone.

    I would love to see a picture of the tiling, if it is that bad?

    I often wonder when other trademen come around that they just agree with you. For example, if you said 'Look t what a wonderful job my son has done of tiling' they would agree with you, probably regardless of the state of the tiles...

    Can you post a link to the picture?

    Did you do any of the work yourself? Any at all?

  • Right none of these comments are helpful! I would suggest you get a separate tiler to suggest if any tiles can be saved and remove whatever you can youself and then get him to fit the new tiles. Then hire a plumber to fit the new shower. hiring them separately will save you some money:)

    This does not suprise me

    You've paid peanut money and expect a rolls Royce job

    We wouldn't entertain a wetroom however small for less than 4K labour, £1.5k building materials

    You've bought on price alone without a second thought for quality .... I'd go as far as saying you've brought this on yourself!!
