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

    • Signed, and I will share it elsewhere, thank you for posting this.
    • There’s a couple of Gov petitions going on in relation to fireworks at the moment but this one is for banning them entirely except organised displays if anyone wants to sign. This is the only sensible way forward in my view. No one should be able to let them off in gardens or anywhere like that, it’s crazy. I am surprised some of you have said it hasn’t been as bad this year. I live near DKH Saino and it’s been absolutely terrible my way for days. This petition gained about 20,000 just in the last day or so so clearly the appetite is there! https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/732559
    • I'd have thought they could use some of  their income from hiring out a large part of Brockwell Park in the summer (therefore, as I understand it, preventing local residents from using much of it) to put on a firework display there  in the autumn which might somewhat make up to those residents for the previous loss of use of the park. And also generate goodwill.
    • Clicking on your name, I see you've made seven posts on here since you joined  around four years ago, and they've all been about local libraries. And none of the posts are  very pleasant. Care to share with the rest of us where  your particular interest in libraries comes from? Do you work in one of them?
