Tiler is off - for good

After three weeks of grief in the en-suite, with tiles having to be re-done and corrected, we've finally had to remove the tiler/plasterer from the job. The last straw came last night when it became clear a warped blade had been used to cut the tiles. As a result, all the new tiles where chipped. In addition, the tile trim would have failed the test of a Primary 5 woodworking class.

We've given the contractor/tiler enough time to sort this out and plenty of encouragement to make it work, but there was no choice but to now draw the line. We're back to square one. At £55/sq metre for the tiles, we don't want to mess about any more.
