That is awful, one of my many pet-hates is not cutting the bottom off the door architrave and sliding the tile underneath. He's not even attempted to scribe round it, it's just the corner cut out, and that's a country mile out of being even close to the door frame/architrave. Point all these mistakes out to him and ask how HE will rectify them.

There's plywood underneath the tiles
that's a bit of a worry. did he use a decoupling membrane or backer boards. tiling directly to wood isn't something i'd consider doing and i'm sure a lot of tilers here would agree. generally shoddy work aside, i'd be asking him about this too.

show hi these pictures and tell him you want them like this if he says ha can't do it
ask for your money back and bring back floor original state before he put tiles down....
