Would you consider this quality work?

I think tile size variations and shape etc might have stipulated some of those joint widths.

Get 5 tiles butted up together out of the spares and see if any of those seem to be out of shape or square etc

How how this gone on , interested to know ?

That was out of order!

Hi everyone,

Thank you so much for the replys. That's a good idea about getting a few loose tiles down to check they are straight. I'll give that a go and see.

Unfortunately though, now I've raised my concerns the tiler is ignoring me. Not very professional at all. I'm going to ring him again on Monday - after being ignored for a week I'm feeling far less forgiving.

Funnily enough I've just noticed how easy it is to see exactly how up and down the tiles are. The skirting board gives it away massively. 2mm steps in places - it looks crap.

Take a pic from ceiling height so we can see at least 8 corners to see if there is size variation.
Those look like glazed porcelain or ceramic tiles not rectified porcelain.Often one corner will curl up or down when made with that type of tile.(pain the butt to get flat)and not been rectified means they are normally out of square also.
Put 2 tiles face to face and see if they rock or can see light.
Also measure on the diagonal each way to see if tiles are square.

If there's a 2mm gap at the skirting, up and down, then it may be bent tiles - not your Tilers fault!

agree with this, and a nice neat Silicon bead will tidy it up nicely

Perhaps decorators chaulk as its paintable.

I'd be interested to see 2 joints in sequence next to each other in one photo, if the tiles are sized wrong then you can have 1 joint looking wrong and the next 1 looking right, still fixer should be oddsing out the differences, and you say they are are 80x 80 when you check them but how exact are you beong, I rarely find tiles are exactly 800 x 800 or 600 x 600 etc. Don't get me wrong there is some workmanship there that needs addressing but sometimes the tiles can dictate the level of quality that can be achievex. If that is the case he should certainly of spoken to about it right from the off and even more so because it's clear the level of quality you are expecting.

This is why i always use bigger spacers on floor tiles.
