Bathroom help! Tiling, plastering, tanking and waterproofing

Recommended Posts

Hi,


Looking for quotes and recommendations....


Not sure which tradesperson I need for this job but we basically have water from our shower getting through the grout between the tiles and penetrating the wall beneath the tiles which is a external wall backing onto our garden.


As a result the tiles are coming away from the wall and I am worried that we will have a much larger problem to deal with if we don't deal with this now.


My father in law installed the shower and put the tiles on for us 3 years ago and used waterproof grout but as time has gone by, the grout has deteriorated causing damp patches on the outside wall. In hindsight I think he should have maybe protected the wall more maybe?


Anyway we need someone to put this right for us. The tiles will need to be removed, the wall fixed and waterproofed and the tiles put back on so that this does not happen again. The outside wall will need to be looked at also as it has the odd damp patch.


I am really not sure which tradesperson I contact but would really like someone who is experienced in this field and has done this before for a start..



We live in a Ground floor victorian conversion flat in Peckham rye.



please get in touch.


thanks

    • Niko has done several jobs at our place in Honor Oak.Recently we've called him out to replace s shower. We thought that the tiles needed stripping out  and replacing. However he explained that the tiles were perfectly adequate for what we wanted. That sums up Niko. He never recommends unnecessary work and is always conscious of cost. He is also a brilliant plumber who is available to offer free advice over the phone if necessary. He is also an incredibly nice bloke. Our go to plumber. He is fair reasonable and very professional. 5*. The only reluctance we have is that he may get too popular and next time we need him we may have a problem because he is so busy !!
