You have the patience of a saint, look forward to seeing the photos of your new sparkly bathroom.

[Mr Tom Morrow]

Kevin. A long wait but it will be nice when all done. You have more patience than me!

My brother was waiting to get his done, my dh did it for them in the end for mates rates. I think he earned £500 and they bought all the stuff needed. It makes such a difference when done

Here day 1 just stipped the tiles as there diffrent people do diffrent things as it council .

[Mr Tom Morrow]

Tiles came off well. Thats always a good start.

If they have gone for the day I would recommend you blast any mould you can see with a mould inhibitor as it's best to kill it off before they do more work.

Spray on, leave for an hour then wash off with clean water

Nasty cracking where they have infilled the cavity by the window. Make sure they hack that out and re plaster before tiling.

Finally as you have a double skin radiator with an open vent on the top I would tape that over with masking tape as it saves all the muck/dust getting between the 2 skins which is a sod to get out.

Better late than never and great that it has started

If you are in a ground floor flat and either of you have mobility problems couldn't you request a wet room. My mum had one it wasn't as expensive as a bath etc and it was a dream to keep clean and use.
