That's not a very good job.
I wouldn't let them do any more but I'm afraid once you tell them to sort things they will be off.
Did you get recommended these Tilers or do you see an add in the paper?

yes not a very good job ,seen worse , would strip it out and start again ,hopefully for you they have used tub adhesive and dotted them ,might give you a better chance of salvaging the full ones ,

Thanks for replies ,the tiler was recommended supposedly a bathroom fitter for a firm and his brother did the electrics and helped tile. I have put a picture of the adhesives and grout on the pictures we brought these as thought was the best stuff to use.
Do not let them carry on working, the tiles look as though they have been fixed onto painted walls as well. You can see a greeny blue colour through the joints.
The fact that they have clearly have not used a datum line to start from a level around the room means that the joints do not line up as they meet around the corner.
Why have they left such large expansion joints where the tiles meet? Should be 2mm not 10mm.
The joint between the bath and tiles is far too big! Were they planning on just filling it with silicon or grout?
The list is endless. How did you come across these 'tilers'? Were they recommended or did you just pluck them out of the Yellow Pages? Probably more homework on your behalf prior to employing these guys. Easy to say now, but hope it all works out for you.
