No spare tiles..

[WetSaw]

A customer wants me to replace this corner shower for a large low level shower tray with a panel. They don't have any spare tiles and don't want to retile the whole room so I'll end up with a strip of tiles along the shower tray that will be different.
The question is what would be best? Mosaic in blue to tie it in or just plain white to match the tray? Decisions, decisions...

White for me.

Chop tiles out and put shower wall panels in

Chop tiles out and put shower wall panels in

Don't think that was one of his options and why would a 'professional tiler' suggest that!

Same to the Pope. Not correct

Can you pull up a few more than a row and make it kinda meet the other wall so it's a sort of shower area kinda thing? As in sort of send it to the right hand wall and do it in either mosaics or same size tile but contrasting, or encaustic or something?

 

[Qwerty]

I agree with white

Do it in a darker tile and run a skirting tile round rest of room same height .maybe ??

 

[Kevbos]

Trim top of skirting and sit on face of rest of walls .looks like it done purposely

Quick update..
Even though the client told me they had looked I decided to have a good look around their storeroom. Buried right at the back under other stuff, covered in dust and dirt I found a load of tiles! Luckily for them just enough of the right ones and even 2 of the border tiles to replace the ones that had been cut for the old shower screen.

Can hardly notice it apart from the pristine white grout...

Good find.

Think a bigger screen would have been a better option. Though you could fit a deflector panel if needed.

I did suggest a screen with a deflector but they just wanted a plain panel. It is 90cm wide which is wider than they originally wanted. Maybe they like the whole bathroom wet!
They don't know that I found the tiles, they arrive Wednesday so I hope they'll be happy...

So everyone's suggestions were a waste of time then!
