Hiccup of the day...

My contractor called me this morning informing me that the thickness of the tiles (600x600mm) is uneven, meaning to say if layed, there will be some uneveness. So he ask if we wanna do a change in the tile...zzz

Well looks like tommorrow need to make a trip to Hafary to choose another tile.

Anyone has similar issues before? Is it common for 600x600mm tile to be uneven? How uneven is uneven? Anyone with any advise is much appreciated. Thanks!!

I had the same problem too. The tiler told my contractor abt the uneven so I don't dare to take the risk. When to choose another tile and 2nd one I choose was definitely much better.

Thanks for your advice hopefully can get a tile of similar colour...Not sure how this changing of tiles will be delaying the whole work :(

Today went to Hafary to select a 2nd choice tile in case the originally selected one is uneven.

However, when we visited our place with our contractor, we find that it is still fine and the uneveness is quite negligible... As such took some pics :)

Saw something similar to this at Thinkers Novelty at Park Mall.... About 160+ onwards if I remember correctly. Price wise should be on the up side since that place is more atas....

Got poisoned by the clocks there bought one....
