    Poor workmanship on tiling floor? (pics attached)

    keep calm, ignore joe words to live by! what bothers me by the tilers statement about the floor is he thought half way through it was no good, if this was the case he could have pulled up the tiles already laid, yes means going backwards in a job but hour or 2 into a job easier than...

    if its any consolation for a day and half work its a good payout. if hes taken the tiles up there shouldnt be any problem for him to re lay them, if he cleans them off and uses appropriate amount of adhesive to lay flat, the floor will need scraping yes, but its his job as he lifted the...

    adhesive thickness

    if the floor is flat and solid you can use a 10mm or 12mm trowell. dont forget to use flexi adhesive on the vinyl tiles.

    it is unfortunate for you that the worst section is right in the walkway. as stated before its not up to your expectations, get tiler back talk to him. you never know he might be a nice guy and sort it. (doubtful, but here is hoping!)

    your next port of call should defo be talking to the guy, give him chance to come in and talk about the work, yes you are right to be peed off and the cost of fixing should not come from yourself

    £380 yes, but for a day and a halfs work its a decent wage. not everyone works the sq m price. but if a "pro" tiler cant tile flat onto a near perfect floor they should not be charging anything as they should be on the dole.

    everyone can make mistakes, have you actually spoken to the tiler? he should have checked the floor, if not happy fixed it, you cant say after the job sorry floor was rubbish, pay me. it would also be good to see a picture that wasnt taken with a microscope!

    Ceramic tiles on wood staircase?

    i wouldnt reccomend it at all dude, even with over boarding youll still need to get a timberflex type adhesive and those arent cheap. normal flex wont be enough. youd definatly need non slip tiles. not usually something id say but stick to carpet.
