More prep on the walls next time, especially fixing broken bond.

If you are going in to developing it may pay in the long run to get the professionals to do the work. Time is money and a pro will save you time and do the job to a pro standard

Thanks for the tip, I'd thought of that for the property that was just done out. The guy that did most of the work isn't qualified in any trade but can do a good enough job for the standard needed. He only charged £10 an hour but it did seem to take him a long time to do the work.

Just taken some pics of the bathroom we're doing now but the battery went on my camera so couldn't get as many photos as I wanted and didn't get the wall with the tapering tiles in the corner. Opinions on the layout and anything else are appreciated

looks okish how long is a long time?

It took him about 40 hours to tile the bathroom walls and floors, which is roughly 3.5 x 2.5m. The surfaces didn't seem too bad so he didn't have to do much with them.

as i said next time look to a pro it will save you money based on what you have paid for that job.

Ok, how much would a pro charge and how much time would that take them?

no pricing in the open forum but it should only take 2 days

It will possibly look better when grouted and you've paid enough for the job at half a metre per hour. It's always difficult to make white tiles look exciting but apart from the areas of concern that we can't see, it looks ok.
