    small amounts of water collecting under bathroom tiles

    In summary, very prompt, professional and efficient service. This was the first time I used mybuilder.com and was not sure what to expect. Jacques finished the job to a very high standard, was very professional and I would hire him again without any hesitation.

    Splash-back tiles for small kitchen in Leyton

    I was pleased with the work, particularly where Jacques was able to correct an error by some previous workmen.

    whole new bathroom to be installed including tiling
    Great job from Jacques. Installed bath, thermostatic shower, tiled, sorted out electrics, tidied up some old plumbing, plastered where some tiling had been. Was patient, offered good advice, but basically did whatever I wanted. Seemed to take real pride in his work and worked over bank holiday weekend to do an extra job I asked for at last minute. Really pleased with my new bathroom

    Bathroom - complete refit
    Did the job to a good standard & got on with it. Am positive with the final result which looks great. Came back to fix a problem leak in his pipework, although to the cost of replacing two expensive tiles. Although initially competitively priced-the negative is the lack of transparency over 'final bill' and £150 extra in material costs not initially scoped or mentioned (& being then left with large excesses of timber with no explanation) also lack of transparency over payment arrangements and concern with costs being demanded upfront on day 1 & floating the job which was also not explained upfront. A otherwise positive job therefore turned into a neutral rating.

    installation of washing machine - no parts required
    Jacques was on time and extremely efficient, machine installed and working in no time. Would recommend and will seek to use his services again when necessary.

    Re-tile bathroom

    I was very happy with the work carried out on my bathroom. Jacques was professional, friendly and punctual. He arranged to do the work at a time that suited me, finished within the desired timeframe (which wasn't easy), did a great job and stuck to the quote we'd agreed on. I would definitely use his services again.

    Kitchen

    Before hiring Jacques we had already had another tiler in to tackle the job.Regrettably we had to ask him to stop works due to the very low standard of his tiling.This is when we turned to My Builder and hired Jacques based on his visit and assurance that he would be able to sort out the existing bodged works and offer a good quality finish/standard.Most of the previous tiling done was taken down bar 2 walls. Jacques went over his original timescale by a few days, and it would seem that perhaps he rushed when it came to finishing stages,ie.grouting and silicone. Aside from the poor quality of the grouting, most of the chrome tiling trim used looks quite terrible! Inside corners are not properly mitered and even on straight edges where there is a seam there is usually a very visible step or gap between the two separate trim strips! Before fully finishing the job,Jacques,asked if we could fully pay up and he would return to finish up the various bits still left to do. We understood that he had another job waiting to be started,so in good faith we paid up in full and trusted him on his word. Several months,numerous calls and text messaged later still no sign of him. It has gotten to a point where he is now simply ignoring our calls/voice mails/txts, and we have giving up all hope of him ever returning to finish the job.Going on from our own experience with him,i would say that he is a likable character,but i would not use him again nor would i recommend his services to anyone.

    bathroom tiling

    We had the tiles replaced in our bathroom and a new shower, sink and bath taps fitted, also some laminate flooring laid. This involved removing the sink and toilet and putting them back. Jacques completed the job quickly and to a good standard and didn't leave a mess. There was an issue with something leaking but Jacques came back twice to fix it and it's perfect now.
