Tiling around a slightly un level bath

[LM]

you should tile level from end to end if there a 7 mm gap in the middle call back the people who supplied the bath and ask them them to explain its there problem not yours .dont make it yours and let them get away with it .or the next time you will be to dealing with 10 to 12 mm give them an inch they will take a mile show there sh45t for what it is .or be a mug all your working life

I've tried that Ray believe me and the reality over here in the dark ages is that it's all last minute rushing for a hand over that's looming and all I get back from thick builders is will you stop crying and just do your best with it😵
I can't argue too much because most of the time I'll be owed about 3 months money on typically 3-4 sites from any one builder.
It's seems to be OK to accept sh*+e materials and for the subby to have to work magic 😡.
I have a reputation now as a crying **** and it's a case of do your best or go away, and this place isn't London! Sometimes there's not a lot happening.

Thanks for the replies lads, vast of information and learning new tricks everyday; i'm not going to attempt to level the bath, access is very limited and its not that bad, spirit level is in the two lines just more one side.

I will level a batten as rufus says about 1/2-3/4 a tile up i think which gives plenty of room for variations with easy cuts.

Im going to do brickbond layout, any tips on what cuts should i go for on the ends, 1/4 and 3/4 ?s

On a row with 1/4 cut, on the joining wall would i put another 1/4 cut and the same for the 3/4 row? or 1/4 cut with a 3/4 on the joining wall row? Not keen on using full tile on the edges as the verticals are shot.

Much appreciated 🙄🙄
