Tiler with "issues"

[Telstar]

Have just had a bathroom tiled by a small business who goes by the name of Salami (who has 3 workers, Ahmed, Salahi and Yusuf) for £450. I recommend that anyone who is looking for a tiler not to use this person. There were problems with the tiling and with the excess damage caused to the new pipework for the Shower in the floor fitted by our plumber. The surround to our bathroom window was removed at my request but was not replaced as agreed. He was recommended by Necipoglu in Lefkosa who have been advised of the bad works carried out by this person who completed his "job" when I asked for a broken tile to be replaced inside the shower cubical with chocolate instead of the jasmiin beige grout used on the wall tiles. Also be advised that Necipoglu do not give refunds on any goods unopened or not, even within a day. So the saying is true that you pay peanuts you get monkeys.

Hi Telstar,

Sorry about bad experience. Unfortunately, not all contractors provide the same level of quality in North Cyprus. Here's a good article on how to find the right people to do your job http://www.cyprushomebuilders.com/diy/s ... rth-cyprus

Hope you won't face similar problems in the future!
