Plaster boarding horror

Sponsored Links
Yes it's a down stairs bathroom, and Cheers for the tip about signing off the work cause it anit getting signed off as it is. I have a feeling they'll say its fine and either shove grout in the gaps or plaster finisher.

Should it be rip it off and start again and if they refuse then what ?
 
Stop all work now and get the area manager down from b&q.

It will then be ripped out and started again hopefully with a large discount!!!!

the reveals are way out of line worst boarding I have seen so far yes it should all be taken off and someone competent should be brought in
 
Yep so rip it is the only way then. Looking at the pics they look mild I invite anyone who wants a good laugh to come view it
 
If you don't make a BIG fuss they will convince you it's ok, cover it up, do the job and get paid.

Make a fuss, shut down the job, they will soon listen, but if your not paying, it makes a little more difficult.
 
I've known my landlady for 5 years if she saw the mess they've created shed back me all the way
 
I mean before it was installed the back side stated it was moisture resistant factor 15 so I presume this just isn't standard plaster board for dry rooms
 
I hope so too there not doing any work in there till this is sorted. Any tips what to say other than did my 3 year old help you ?

Does it say 'water vapour resistance factor 15'?

I have some standard wallboard at home and I just checked that's what it says on it.
I know MR board has outer face of green. I think the inside is a light shade of green - but while since I've looked so I may be mistaken

no need I can see from here the margins on the reveals say a lot espec the righthand side margin at the top you have about what looks like 2in or so of window frame
and at the bottom about half inch or so + gaps plus steps + bows + boards that look like they have been cut with a kitchen knife, and mr board is usually green we have just dot&dabbed 12 rooms with the stuff, I have never seen any other mr board any different colour im not saying you cant get it just that I haven't seen it, is there any off cuts of the boards lying about? so you can show us the back?
 
There are numerous off cut s just normal brown paper backer
