Herringbone issue

[LauraDean]

Hi, we are having a herringbone pattern in our bathroom and the tiler has done one wall but then when he’s gone onto the next wall and the lines don’t match. Is that right? It looks funny to me but I’m no expert! Your help would be appreciated before we waste too many tiles and time!!

It should wrap round the wall...

It should wrap around. Maybe he forgot to save the of cuts. Feel sorry for him doing herringbone around the window

I thought so... hmmmm I guess he will have to fix it...?!

Well I have no clue about this stuff and even I thought that’s what you do... I don’t understand why he’s not followed the wall round! Thanks for your help, I didn’t want to challenge him without confirmation I’m right

Better to fix it now or it might forever bother you

I would suggest that he’s not even a Tiler!
He’s obviously dot and dabbing these tiles individually and short of wasting 2 walls of tiles, he’s going to cost you big time unless you stop him now.

Thank you, we thought as much but didn’t want to complain without a professional opinion. He’s also taken a week to do 1/2 the job he’d said would take 2-3 days, so our life is on hold whilst he’s been unreliable and not showing up when he said! Nightmare

As well as what’s been said above I’d also make sure that the walls have been primed with an acrylic or sbr primer.

A week! Oh dear. Not showing up on time is a bad sign imo
