Default Re: Tiling question

Showers vary from model to model with regards to connections some are push fit some are just plastic pipe (put your own connections on push fit or compression) i have seen compression flexi pipes fitted to showers by plumbers just so they don't have to go into the wall(i would not recommend it)

Tiling…
We charge £25 per sq meter but the price includes adhesive, grout and trim
In Bradford there is a tiling academy and the area is flooded with tilers that has pushed the price down and with the lack of work for tilers some are charging as little as £15 per sq meters and others are taking a 5 day DIY plumbing course to under cut plumbers for full bathroom refits

Toilet connections….
Because toilets are getting smaller. Instead of moving all the pipe work and to save time flexi pipes are fitted they are also good when you are tiling so you can move the toilet out each day and when you tile a floor you don’t need to adjust the height of the pipe
