The tile "fella" wasn't even done yet, he thought he had just a few odds and ends to complete when the homeowner called me because they thought the work wasn't done correctly.

Take a look. http://picasaweb.google.com/tile4youinc/HACKJOBIRecentlyRepaired

Hey Jaz,
That is some nasty looking work. I just don't get what some of these guys are thinking. I need to take a couple of pics of a shower pan that is being done on the house next to one I am working in. Not good. Thanks for posting the pics!

Greetings. I enjoyed that photo spread. I will be in a few topics (this is my first post) going over issues with a bathroom (from scratch now that we have ripped it down to its skivvies). Waterproofing (sub-topic: mold) is on my mind.

Way off topic here. I was back in hospital from before Christmas until the end of December. We are still doing the bathroom most Saturdays and some Sundays. We took the weekends off after Christmas and New Year's.
