WEEK 38 - We finally have a tiler (Delay = 22 weeks)

It has taken a long time but we now have a tiler on site. And the good news is that his work over the last couple of days has been pretty good. In fact, it has been better than we ever imagined, with no ledges and even spacing between each tile. But as with everything so far, nothing is ever straightforward. Today, he decided there were more pressing issues to attend to. So, he decided not to turn up. We've come to expect this kind of commitment over the last few months... In the meantime, 90% of the walls have been completed; the additional plywood flooring has been installed after the contractor got the spec wrong; and the new bathroom door has been hung. The electricians are due tomorrow to install the underfloor heating, which will enable the tiler to do the utility floor and the bathroom floor on Friday. That’s the plan – for the time being.
