    Will this job look ok once grouted or do I need to ask for it to be redone?

    In the middle of getting my bathroom done and took a closer look today. The sloped ceiling cuts are not even, and then all of the corner cuts are also uneven. We are planning a grey grout so I am concerned it will look a mess once done. Do you think it will look ok, or should I get it redone?
