Hi, My tiler has just left and apart from him chatting to me about his life story for majority of the day I have just checked some of the tiles with my straight edge and it is not flat on a few of them. I usually do work myself, I am not a professional but really take my time getting it right...

Hello, after some advice, I feel like I’ve had a really bad tiling job done, it’s half finished as he’s tried to place dark grout over white grout and realised half way through its not working, I just feel where he’s finished the spacing between the tiles isn’t even, am I being too fussy?

Have had this subway pattern laid and some tiles don't seem level... Am I being too critical? Not sure if you can tell the issues from the pics...

Am I being picky? This is a photo of a local tilers work, they have excellent reviews and everyone is saying how wonderful this job looks. I wouldn't be happy with this tiling job, surely the tiles should be more uniform and the end cut should match the adjacent tile. Any thoughts from you...

I’ve recently had my bathroom tiled. I think a few errors have been made and would like to know if I'm being fussy. Shower: 1. Gap of about an inch left above top row of tiles 2. Thin strip of tiles along the bottom and even these are different sizes with different grout spacing (see pics)...

when i started laying out my tile lines, i took a long time to come up with what i thought was a good compromise. having bought a laser level made the job a whole lot easier. now the rookie mistake.... i intended to lay the floor tiles across the doorway matching up the floor and wall grout...

We’ve just had our bathroom finished yesterday and we are really disappointed with the finish of the tiling. I’ve attached pictures but basically the grout is missing/incompletely in some places, the joins in the tiles are completely uneven/not level in multiple places, metal beading is...

Hi - I am new to the forum although I have consulted it many times, successfully gaining some hints and tips on materials and techniques. I have joined as we are facing quite a few tiling jobs as we set about refurbishing our house. I have already posted a query on the Tile Adhesive and Grout...

Having a tiling job redone, because of a previous poor effort. the tiler has put down most of the tiles prior to grouting. a couple of the tiles have lips in them. Quite noticeable. Am I being to fussy? Is it a major thing for him to correct the two tiles? they are 600mmx600mm tiles.

Hi All, I’ve just had 2 rooms tiled with oak effect ceramics and I feel a little disappointed with the final result. The tiler used self-leveller to even the floor prior to laying but I feel that this should have been done with more care, and that many of the subsequent problems are a result of...

I've got plasterers coming in next week to render the (brick) walls of my bathroom ready for it to be tiled. 3 of the walls will be tiled from the floor to the ceiling and the plasterers are going to sand/cement render those and not skim them. 1 wall will only be tiled half-way up the wall...

Hi I’m looking for some advice regarding some limestone floor tiles we are laying. They are coming up with water marks that don’t seem to be drying after around 5 days. They were laid on a bed of white adhesive which is fully across the tiles not just the corners. The floor was coated with pva...

Hello Am I just being picky or is this a bad job? Tiles not lined up to the base units or straight when you come down the stairs. Another problem is that some tiles sound hollow when you knock on them and one actually broke when I walked on it last night :( Tiles not in line with base units...

Hi, I’m doing something wrong here? I bought these from eBay for one job . After I dry tested one on my 8mm tiles, it is loose even tho I have pushed the wedge all the way in? Any ideas? Seller said they are for 7-12mm tiles. I have since bought another system listed for 3-12mm tiles. Hopefully...

Hi, We are currently in the process of having our kitchen tiled and have some concerns about the standard of the tiling so far. The tiler is due back this morning but as of a few minutes we have asked him to stop any works until we can reach a solution regarding the concerns that we have raised...

I had a PM from (Merle Collins) AKA Kev Mitchel, the other day asking me if I now lived in Indonesia? he was right, I was fortunate enough to spend four months on a tropical island called Belitung a part of Indonesia.I can't begin to describe the place, paradise is the only word that comes to...

Have just laid these and now done some look discoloured like a brown dirty tinge that won't clean up. I saw the previous thread regarding discolouration, is there a fault with these tiles?
