another ***** lookin for freebie.
nothing wrong with seting out IMO.
If you discussed where to start so that it is. Payment due.

This is why giving customers to much input can naff a job up... I discuss various ways that IMHO will look the best and then I fix tiles..

Personaly , I would not have let her talk me into that small cut... But it's down now and she made the choice ..

Am I missing something? Did she say she wanted you to start full tile from tray on the floor? I'd have personally started full tile from tray on floor but everyone is different.

I think most customers are oblivious to 'setting out',until you mention it to them.But as has been said above a compromise of changing the orientation of the veins would improve things.

If I had started with a full tile from the tray on the floor, while matching all wall and floor gaps, then it would not have been possible to cover the exposed edge of the tiles on the boxing with the shower wall tile. This is where the compromise has been made.

Unfortunately, these thin cuts were done with the offcuts that were left, as only the exact amount of tiles were ordered. The bits that were used for the thin cuts were the best on offer from all the offcuts. Not ideal, but not many options.

It's a nice stone and you have done a good job, can you get 3 pieces cut oversize from a slab and replace them on the floor to loose the small slip cut ?

Walls are Marmox.

Why's it pink? Has it been skimmed?

Looking close, it's marmox where it's tiled.
