Lip on tiles

[Nasty nic]

that is what i thought, but was hoping i could make something or use some sort of trim just to make it look neat but i dont think it will look that bad after i have grouted it. my fiirst tiling job as well as had to take off most of the white tiles to swap the damaged ones also had to change the bath beading as the last person went OTT with sealent and was going black

bigger grout joint would help.

yeah i know but there is not anyroom between the tiles, my GF keeps going on about tiling over the old tiles so it would be even, but i think it would look worse because of the sink, toilet and rad

Dear Nic, you were surpose to level the space with adhesive b4 laying the mosaic. Now check if it is possible to remove the mosaic alltogether without damage, carefully clean the adhesive , take note of the thicknes mosaic, then level the space let it dry then apply the adhesive and put the mosaic.

so you say the best thing i should do is remove the mosaic tiles fill in the gap so its level with the white tiles then lay the mosaic tiles?

Dear dealercity, the mosaic is thicker than the field tile. .

the only think would help is to take mosaic off, and buy marble effect or any other border, but 6mm thick

hmm cant see us doing that as that lot cost alot lol oh well

maybe take them off and chisel the wall in 4-5 mm and put back up flush.

i have seen this in B&Q thought of looking at the 4mm trim then get a sharp stanley knife and cut the lip off that goes behind the tile and use the trim. think it might work if it fits

You could take off all the tiles, keep the mosaic and buy some other tiles 10mm+ thick and do over or call in a pro. Otherwise just leave it as is, grout it and be done.

Just an idea

 

[Nasty nic]

well i do think once the tiles are grouted and cleaned it will make it look neater, was just trying to find away to make it look smarter. i dont think i have not done that bad for my first time.

2 choices nic..

remove and build field tiles to suit or leave as it is... as a first time job and seen as GF is giving grief..lol.. leave it be and grout to finish.. you know next time your mistake
, so crack on and enjoy.

 

[Nasty nic]

Dave think i will leave it lol.
i can keep looking for ideas, i need to grout in the morning so i can then skim the walls in the afternoon then seal the bath as the grout should be dry then sand the walls once the sealent is dry to then paint the walls then skim the celling. once all that is done changed the bath panel and bathroom flooring. sometimes i hate being a man
