The tiling for the shower is finally finished; it still needs grouting, but I think it’s OK, reasonably level, even on the wiggly wall, and the joints match up, so I’m quite proud of myself! Nick’s had a rather more frustrating day, though, with the waste fittings for the wash basin refusing to play ball and after several hours of messing around, it still leaks. The sink was pricey, but came with free waste bits; I think I now know why! We’ll have to buy a new waste fitting before we can use it.
Alex, Graham and Izzy arrive tomorrow for 2 weeks holiday; should be fun!
Tiling looks good, well, it would do if it wasn’t for those pesky bits of cardboard stuck randomly on!! Silicon sealant &/or plenty of PTFE tape. . . . always works for me on troublesome basin wastes. . . . (Invoice for consultation is in the post!!) :-)))
Thank you! But you mean I have to remove the cardboard? But that’s the artistic bit! Though I admit it might get soggy when I have a shower. Will your invoice be for more or less than a new waste kit??
(Intake-of-breath type sucking noise. . . ) It’ll be hugely more than a new waste kit, it’s these european fittings, see, it’s just soooooooo difficult to get the bits, and when they turn up, they’re usually the wrong ones, and then there’s fuel! Have you seen the cost of diesel recently!? Not forgetting postage, it’s criminal!! :-)))))
