Looks canny from the pics.... there seems to be a badly lipped tile on the bath panel though...?

 

[White Room]

Just one little thing...on the bath panel a tile corner protudes slightly which stands out but overall looks good mate..

 

[Ian]

Very neat and tidy, was it you who cut the architrave that short!

 

[Andy Allen]

looks alrite, one tile seems to be lipping a bit on the bath pannel in picture 3, or it could just be the way the lights shinning on it..

but overall looks a nice tidy job..

Looking pretty good.
How picky do you want me to be? :smilewinkgrin:
Yoe can rotate the pics before you submit them- use Paint.

I was going to mention the way you cut the tile for the thermostatic shower control.

 

[Andy Allen]

bugger.....thought i would be first to spot the lippy tile...:lol:

Looks good for a beginner or competent DIY'er. There are plenty of worse efforts in the hall of shame..... http://www.tilersforums.com/tilers-forums-arms/17900-tilers-forums-hall-shame.html

If I'm critical I would make the following observations-
1. Lippage on bath panel (already mentioned by others)
2. I would have dropped the tile layout (horizontal) so a full tile did not start off of the bath. This would have also avoided the grout line immediately behind the basin, and evened-up the window better
3. Paid a few quid for a diamond core bit for the 15mm shower mixer feed pipe.
4. I would have made the corner joints smaller (only by 1-2mm). It also looks as if these are grouted and not siliconed (ignore me if not)

Good effort though

Nasty cut around the architrave, lipped tile on the bath panel and a couple of small cuts on the floor. Thats being picky. Is this a room in your house or a paid job?

 

[kendo1]

Well, you did ask!

 

[Mike]

looks nice but there's a badly cut tile under the r/h side architrave and i would have done the internal corners in a similar colour silicon to the grout. maybe jasmine. not slating the job , just constructive critisism

 

[macten]

As above but would add when wrapping around on the half bond it can look better if you have the smaller cut following the big cut and big cut following small cut rather than big/big and small/small.

Top effort though!

You do realise how picky these nutters are?
Normal people probably wouldn't notice.

wow quick response. Its on a house renovation of mine. Yea the tile on the bath panel did slip out a tad. Wish i would of removed now. Iv since purchased the 365 bathroom kit so no more dodgy cuts around the shower feeds. My Chippy cut the architrave but agree the cut could of been better. Also agree with the small cut on the flooring. Should of moved the center line. Learning all the time.

Thanks again.
