Thanks for the help on the other posts.

I am expecting this to go sideways as the builder has now quoted a NHBC regulation at me for the standard of the tiling "for my records" 😬.

"overall variation in surface level of wall and floor tiles ± 3mm maximum deviation from a 2m straightedge with equal offsets."

I'm attaching some lippage that I picked up on, which has nothing to do with the surface level overall.

From my reading adjacent joints need to be less than 1mm on under 6mm width. This washer is 1.41mm so are these joints against the guidance?

Now im not normally going around with a washer, these are simply lippage that I picked up on with my feet, didn't think I would need to build a case to get it rectified.

In one area they have fixed a overcut tile, but now it isn't polished anymore (last photo) - can this be polished to match?

These are 600 X 600 tiles in a 1st floor kitchen if it makes any difference, I would like to think that suitable decoupling has occured.
