    Help! Plumber left a hole going under the edge of the bath.

    Help! My plumber has just left and has pulled off quite a chunk of my wall when removing my bath. I said I would tile tonight without looking at his work. He has left this hole. Am I unreasonable to ask him to come back and remove the bath so I can repair the wall?
