There is only one acceptable solution here: redo as planned. It's a shame, because apart from the slope, the work looks well done. Stay firm in your demand while also acknowledging the craftsmanship involved in the installation. Such a mistake is hard to understand, but it is no reason for disrespect.

That is once again rare nonsense. But somehow it also indicates that you can never be careful enough. Simply a shame and stressful.

I agree. The craftsman can chalk that up to "learning money." I'm happy to be flexible to find good solutions when something in the construction process deviates from the plan—and the solution is convincing. But you didn’t want a shower tray, you wanted the tiles. And not a botched rework. The job was not an overly complex planning task where something could be overlooked.

How is that supposed to work with the shower tray? I have in mind a tray about 10 cm high. Terrible :eek: For a really flat - ideally level with the floor - tray, you would first have to chisel out correctly again, and it’s questionable whether you can still connect it properly. In short: Which specific tray model does the craftsman suggest? I agree completely. Do it anew.

The stress does not arise from the fact that mistakes happen, but from how they are dealt with. Often this begins with an accusatory tone that turns project partners into opponents - foolish if the project success is a common goal. Technical errors can be corrected much more easily than a destroyed level of communication. Substantially hard positions can be enforced far better and with fewer consequences on a good communication level than with loudness and lawyers. And also less stressful for all involved.

And anyone who believes that as a client they can really watch out and control, overestimates themselves massively and will always lose in an adversarial relationship with their service providers - maybe not legally or financially, but certainly mentally and qualitatively.
