Tiling forum hate plumbers

[Phil]

Oohh they really hate us plumbers on there, or at least one or two do. I browse around the forum but never post up pictures as I know they will pick up on the slightest little fault and rip you down.

I had to learn to tile as I couldn't find a decent tiler I could rely on and can tile to a excellent standard, granted I don't do the 1200's but I don't really want to.

Really cant understand why they moan . Probably as stressfull as sleeping imho

 

[Phil]

They moan because they think we are undervaluing them.

I won job of the month on there for a bathroom I did.

Same reason I learnt to do my tiling. Sick of being let down and the final straw was the scrote tiler that just bent my copper shower tails back into the wall and tiled over.

Chat to them on there. Real good to learn of them and share your knowledge. Read some of the posts to,see how wrong you’ve been doing it for years.

Personally I like tiling, but doing it day in day out. Is a tough job.

Joking aside , its a very underestimated skill in my book , I am a excellent tiller if I say so myself, only difference is it takes me 3 times as long as a skilled tiler to do the same job , or is that 4 times lol .

I do like the mix, but couldn't tile day in day out.

Nice job King, shame about the stagger inside the shower, but you couldn't have laid it any other way
