Tiles look like British made BCT and in my opinion are just wall tiles!
Looks like dot and dab!
Oh hell yeah that's dot and dab alright. Need to come off and be fixed by a proper tiler.

Just been to the house we rented when we first moved here. We're still friends with the owners. They've recently had it reformed with a big extension. I popped to the loo and couldn't help noticing this...

I looked and looked but couldn't see any reason for setting out leaving that slither on the right.

More like a number two with the window open surely? 🙂

Tiles only just fitted after being delivered 4 months ago. Tiler breaks a couple of tiles while cutting. Runs out. Spare tiles sent. So now a different batch and different shade. The darker ones are only loose laid but everything else is fixed.
I'd say he's also had another brain fart with the envelope cuts. What A Wolly!

Surely the (dry fitted)bottom right hand pair of tiles just need inverted 180 degrees??

In the bottom right quarter, the right hand piece has been fixed. Its only the two darker pieces that are loose, but yeah, hes fitted it the wrong way round.

It’ll look ok when it’s grouted!
Oh! It is grouted - well it never looks any better anyway.

Looks like plenty more ''areas for improvement'' elsewhere as well.

this bathroom was pretty bad, no grout in the mosaics on a wet wall, and last tiler finished half the job with black Silicon because apparently he had ran out of white Silicon!!

Wow.... thats a special kind of......... special!
That’s very bad work ! I took my installer to court recently and the court have now instructed a building surveyor...to report to the court. After the process it will take a total of a year fighting a poor installer who claims the works ok...that’s with a gap of up to 16mm of grout and Silicon at the top of the wall which was supposed to be floor to ceiling tiling... I will update people if and when we may win or not. I am asking for a retile. They even tried to send their mate round claiming he’s independent .. to inspect the works, what a joke
