some pictures of my first time tiling

Just cut it in as it is....or the bath panel will not fit and lifting it will cause you more work for a newbie....looks well though ....what size joints have you, they kind of tight..?

as dave says brilliant first effort looks really nice
 
Why not rase the floor with 1/2" marine ply you'll need 4 sheets, this would rase the bath by 2", and sort the floor out, you'll have to trim the door, or use 3 sheets, and tile the floor to make up the difference?
 
why not rase the whole floor, if you're going to tile the floor,use 3 sheets of 1/2" marine ply, and make the rest up with tile and adhesive, this will bring the bath up to the required hight, you would have to trim the door, or do you have enough room in the hall to reverse hinge the door to open out the way?
 
Thats a pretty good job! Better than I could do. I can talk the talk :lol:

Are they Satinado from Tile Giant?
 
I would normally try to have at least, a half tile cut, over the bath, but in you're situation, i would just put the cut's in, and carry on tiling. It looks like a really good job to me, bud.

Cheers, Edd
 
thanks for all the coments the tiles are satinado from tile giant..i will let you know wat i decide on the floor thanks
 
very good work for your first time just try to set out a little better next time as the guys say at least half a tile above the bath looks more apealing seen some pros work not as good as yours well done!:thumbsup:
 
a very commendable first effort Magor, as Dave says, seen far more experienced guys do a lot worse:thumbsup:
