Christ knows?? This is why people argue on here mate. read the 9 pages first then come back mate. You need to. Hope you don't treat your jobs like that. Leave out all the important info before tiling.

Who said I failed?
Who said customer didn't want big joints?

Facts pal ;)

I picked up more and more tiles, none of them were the same most times. The job has been posted on here under full rip out and re-tile. Go and have a look before judging.

I'm not going to bother reading 9 pages after seeing your first response to TJ.
DIY stock tiles are generally tosh. If the tile your placing is significantly bigger to the one adjacent to it put it down a select another one.
You say you spaced it out to 4mm to compensate. Did you start with 4mm?
Round edge ceramic tile? Grout joints must look about 6/7mm? How do you fail to line up a joint that size, christ knows!

Hahahaha!
Levelling system. Nothing to do with my skills as a tiler. More so the quality of client and expectation of end result. My clients dont shop in B&Q fella.

Maybe if you were a bit more open minded in options avaiable to you as a tiler your grout joints wouldn't be running out eh??

It heidous. The slither in the corner, started full tile from bath. No one is perfect matey. That job look awful and sloppy setting out. Go away now I'm bored. I came on for advice, got into some hassle with "TJ" I said "sorry" to TJ and you come 2 days later using that as a ref in my post.

GO AWAY. Start setting your work out properly as well. Did well to get paid from that so well done for that :thumbsup:
