Thats LAZY tiling. People can't be arsed doing a proper job rather than being unable to I think!

Someone else my say i'm wrong but I would get the tiles off prime the area then uase some rapid set adhesive as had been recommended to level the area, let it dry and then fix the tiles using something like Bal whitestar.

Hello mate.I been at this game for 25yrs now,and if your as inexpierenced as you say then RAPIDset IS NOT THE THING FOR YOU,you`ll get in a right old mess not to mention the £20 or so thats rock hard in thebottom of your bucket.
If i were you i`d dot and dab plasterboard over the top of it unibond it and tile over with some nice user friendly wall tile adhesive.thiner the bed easier it will be for you .ps.dont use crosses to space your tiles there crap ,get spacer pegs much easier cheers man.cameron young

Heres a few more of the tiles.

and another. This was what the edge of any tile he cut looked like.

----
and one more. this was the central feature above the hob, note the squint tile and that nothing really lines through

----
Ok now these are photos I took of the walls with the tiles off.

What do you think, is rapid set the way to go. there seems to be mixed opinions.

 

[brummie tiler]

i would mate, but thats just my opinion and i have 5 years experiance in doing it, Just go with what you feel you will be most comfortable with doing. Walls actually dont look to bad , dont know how he made such a hash of it! ive tiled a lot worse before thats for sure.

could i use a rapid set on the bar job i avbout to emark on
the wall curve in 1 foot from the straight wlls will i disuadev the client from tiling to the cueling

I wouldn't mind, but the last kitchen splashback wall I did was a hell of a lot more uneven than yours, holes and deep dents everywhere and I still got a perfectly level finish.

Poor tiling dosen't really come into it, it's far worse than some home DIY jobs I've seen.

As for the tiles being chipped like that on all the cuts, looks like he was using a crap wet saw blade.

I'm still tempted just to get someone in to do it for me. But this guys really put me off, I'm nervous that I'll get someone equally ****e.
