Just read this and have an opinion please

Yeh, tried every other way possible, I always take 1-2 hours setting out and I couldn't think or get any other way. She is happy anyway which is the main thing isn't it. Thanks

 

[Anto Holland]

You really couldn't tho. If you scale it to your screen size you will see it would have looked terrible on the far right. Didn't take long to do that window anyway, the window being that close to the wall is never a good help to be honest. Old house though off centre window. Next time I will move the window

 

[mache]

I can understand why you have laid out that way. Often a compromise somewhere on layout with some jobs

I can see that also if it had left an even thinner cut at the end of the right of the window wall. But what sticks out to me more is the thin cut on the end of the adjoining wall on the left. Just makes that whole corner look to busy to my untrained eye.

 

[Anto Holland]

Fair enough, it really was a pain to work out tho, size of the tiles wasn't on my side I'm afraid. I understand what you are saying but it is what it is, any other way left even worse cuts on the left and far right (focal point).... If I wasn't a tiler I wouldn't even notice, but wanted that window symetirical left to right so went with this one.

Picky lot on ere :lol: ....

 

[Anto Holland]

He is one I did the other week. Absolute nightmare of a job, around 500 tiles :mad2: but same kind of cut to get window and far right looking symetrical.

 

[widler]

I don't see the problem, EVERYBODY is different, I think it looks fine, looks like it's wrapped around ,ignore em,they would pick problems with Michelangelo's work half of these [emoji8]

 

[Anto Holland]

Haha, one day i'll post something flawless yeh the wrap around is what made me decide this way in the end also. Thanks for that

It's really bad Mark, this was tiled last week in a flat above my rental.
Guy shouted me up to get a look at it, council plasterer did this, the 1st 2 photos are of the same bit of trim, he cut it short & just pieced it in at the bottom. [emoji23][emoji23]
I've lost a couple of jobs over the years to this plasterer...

[widler]

Looked good , i wish i could do it that good, im off up scotland on the 19th, may look him up and get some tips [emoji8]

 

[swanman]

sometimes you get responses you don't like to here
ive had a couple.
just take it on the chin and move on. You are properly a great tiler and have many happy customers but there are some jobs that put you to the test.
ive had tiles that are different sizes and it is a right pain. i even had to take a couple of mm off so that it fits.
good luck . i tiled a kitchen yesterday and used 5mm joints beat that.

 

[swanman]

The cut into the corner is a bit small
but it looks ok

 

[swanman]

Great job

 

[tungsten tip]

luckily you knew the ceiling was out , that shouldnt be luck.

 

[Anto Holland]

I check the ceiling on every single job. Last 2 jobs the ceiling has been awful.

 

[charlie1]

Most jobs I drop a new ceiling so I try and set out full tile from top. Works out most times
