Forum Support Mike J Posted November 21, 2018 Forum Support Posted November 21, 2018 Reminds me of the complete CR remodel we completed a few months back. The tile man put ceramic wall tile over the outlet drain pipe for the lav. I was checking on him about every hour or so and caught it before the mortar had set. His reason? "No one told me." Makes me wonder if he has a wife to tell him to eat, sleep, breath, . . . . 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need to panic they probably have a complete set of diamond tipped hole cutters which they use to cut the hole after the tile has set mmm yeh right.Maybe he didn`t give a chit so seen no reason for anybody else to.

I brought two diamond tip core bits with me from the US when I moved here. The tile guys are like kids at Christmas when I let them use them with my 28 volt cordless drill (2 CR , 2 kitchen, and 2 dirty kitchen remodels). I always demo first so they know speed, pressure, and to use water to keep the bit cool. We have had multiple different tile men do work for us and I was always pleased with their work. This guy was not a craftsman and I told the foreman he is not welcome back. I would not be surprised if his "experience" was watching someone else and thinking "I can do that". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can sit on the toilet with your fishing pole 🎣 and catch dinner 🐟 at the same time you take care of business. Just gotta watch out you don’t reel in any brown trout or tissue fish! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at this picture reminds me of an installation I have seen.It looks like there is a trough at the back and the ends look a bit higher.That sends the water to the trough and down the plughole which looks as if it is to the side of the tap by the wall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are correct. It is disconcerting to look at it, and that's why I took the pic, but the countertop slopes to the back and there is a hole for the water to run to. In fact its just the right height that if all the urinals are occupied . . . . 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
