here you go.. lets hear it lol...

Screwed over ply long story but the builder messed up fitting stainless veneer it bubbled and had to get replaced
 
Anyway back on topic..sorry tea-bag...is this a council house? where the walls out ?..Alistar needs to eat humble pie on the hardie....but that plumbing...got to be council work..awful ?..that should have been looked at...ok good effort...no bodies perfect but setting out and good prep is a must...and then theres getting the trim nice and tight...you aint gunner win any prizes but just practice if you can..cheap tiles but try not to practice too much on peoples houses...some peoples stds are less than others so you might get away with it but ive seen some awful DIY jobs.you tried your best..its not pro stds but if your passionate about it dont let some of the comments dishearten you...its bloody hard work !
cheers for the feedback mate... nah its private my cousin let me do this bathroom as he saw the work I done to my brothers bathroom. and I think theres a new tenant in there enjoying my bathroom! lol... well im currently in the process of doing my bathroom I have just boarded up one of the doorways and will be doing the other side tmoz and then its almost ready for the tiles once I find the money lol and cheap tiles they will be! I think more prep research and then putting it into practise will help a lot. I know some cuts are bad and trim work isn't perfect but will keep practising. this was my second attempt at tiling on my own from start to finnish so i think the passion for the work helped me achieve what i did lol. i think as time goes on i will begin to see what is spot on and as i do the standard of work will get a lot better when i get the eye for it but that's experience isn't it. i wont be taking another big job like this for a while i don't think and will spend hours setting out my bathroom this time lol. cheers mate
 
if its your second attempt then it wont be perfect by any means as im sure the pros weren't when they first started..i dunno...I know my tiling wasn't perfect when I started doing my own houses many moons ago..but it improved as i went along...as said good effort and just take your time.
 
cheers mate will do. the passion for achieving quality will be going nowhere so it can only get better... i hope lol.
 
personally, they're not pics I'd be putting on my portfolio or website (if I had one), but then again I probs wouldn't put my first efforts on either.
 
The man / woman who never made a mistake, never made anything, (apart from me):sofahide: :lol:
 
Looks half decent for a DIY job mate(or 2nd attempt at tiling)I've seen worse on council jobs 🙂
The only thing that bothers me is tiling behind the bath not on top,a recipe for disaster Mr T.
Oh and the staggering of boards,it is for strength as folk have said, a staggered joint is much stronger than a straight joint
