I've had a new shower cubicle done and the fitter has installed the wall profiles the wrong way around so the screws are on the outside (pic included).
He also sealed the enclosure on the inside even though the instructions explicitly say not to (though it wasn't possible to seal the verticals externally given the wall profiles being the wrong way around).
He also made the mistake of sealing the shower tray to the panels after installing the enclosure, instead of before.
He's agreed to dismantle the enclosure and replace it with a new one (a sensible decision I think given the amount of silicone to clean off), and acted like that would sort it. but I pointed out that the panels will have exposed drill holes once the wall profiles are in the correct position. He claimed he could add some kind of trim to cover them but my concern is (a) this will look naff and (b) it might not fit flush to the panel anyway since there would be silicone on the outside of the enclosure which would surely lift it slightly. It just sounds like a bodge to me, not a solution.
Thoughts appreciated. My gut is to insist the panels come off too. I know this is likely to rip the plasterboard with it but I suppose that's what happens with installing a shower cubicle, one mistake can cause a domino effect. I don't see why I should accept a crap solution when it was their mistake and they're supposed to be professionals.
