IIRC there's legal stuff going on in the background in which case Kai was completely correct just to stick with facts and let the prospective clients read between the lines.What could you have done?
Refused to show them around your house.
Explicitly told them to stay well clear of the builder and outlined his behaviour and the shoddy work...
That's what.
exactly if he kicks up a fuss the builder finds out and even more problems, whilst still payed more than recieved. played it the best way in my opinion, give them the facts and let them decide.
Why have you joined this forum just to have a pop at someone that makes actual good contribution?What could you have done?

This is exactly what is happening. The sink waste water is going into the toilet pipe and into the main soil pipe. I believe something like this was used.

The tiling looks sub par also.Update: Toilet has been fixed (it also goes back to the tiles) however instead of replacing with the toilet we picked (and paid for) it's been replaced with a WC2GO ScrewFix budget! toilet. A £60 all on one package deal, cistern and toilet seat; it look's ok in the photo but its very cheap and plasticky! - we had this done yesterday when both I and the wife was not present.
Also little things; its something i can replace no problem but i now have to go buy/fit a push fit in matt black to match as we had already paid for it on the previous toilet.
I am not happy with the pipe work either; so i am going need to box this in or something
Not long , we sourced our doors last week without informing the developer, resulting in nearly £4K off the bill (he knows as we told him, just no the cost or we have placed an order). If the Juliet glass doesn't arrive by Friday, we'll also source that ourselves. The only remaining issue is the extensive pointing needed outside, and we're in the dark about the color he picked for the lamitex. We're pushing him to finish that this week, but he's citing bad weather.
It's coming off the bill. I am taking £300 off for a new toilet and £150-200 for fitting. That again will be shown will the rest of receipts. We have spent so much on materials here and there for the guys ; like even really basic stuff like builders caulk, mastic etc as he will not let trades pick stuff up without him sourcing and simply delays things further - we just want them gone and finished.
The tiling looks sub par also.
The finish really makes all the difference, it's a shame they've done this
My post was a bit blunt but tbh I'm a bit flabbergasted at the goings on. Tbh he was probably ****** off at the start re the "QS breakdown" and I'm not surprised he wanted to go off his 30+ years experience. Imagine some guy coming up to you dismissing all of your experience and presenting an alternative path.
What makes you say that?
