Please help me. Had my wet room tiled and they've done what's supposedly called an envelope cut but it isn't very aesthetically pleasing and other cuts like that when googled look a lot more symmetrical. Can you give me advice on this? Is it done wrong?

I've had to clear away breakfast items in the past. i.e. the table, chairs, bowls and cups.......then sweep up the cornflakes off the floor before I could start tiling it.

Bathrooms are always full of tooth brushes and shampoo's etc. It's like I've just tured up out of the blue to tile their rooms.
 
What's the problem with tiles being in the garage? If you turn up with them in your van do they get in the house by themselves?
Never seen tiles with legs actually,when i give a price for a job it is to do the tiling not to spend a few hours carrying them from the garage,i dont supply tiles anymore so i dont think ill have a problem getting them in from the van,dont mind helping anybody but believe the tiles should be where im working
