In need of some advice

Post by alsavs »

My Daughter had a shower fitted sometime ago and has had nothing but problems. Firstly the plumber who fitted the pipe work did'nt do a good job and the waste pipe leaked through the ceiling so the contractor repaired that problem and fixed the ceiling. They have been back many times to try and sort the problem out the tiler blamed the plasterer regarding his work and finally today the plumber blamed the tiler for not using the correct grout. I was just wondering if you could enlighten me what grout should have been used. Cheers in advance.

I would guess without seeing it that the tiler used grout around the base of the shower tray (and possibly the internal corners) instead of a flexible silicone..

Either that or the Plumber is pulling the wool over your eyes..
