Hi I'm new to this forum.
Today our bathroom tiling was completed by our tiler all grouted etc, basically today I questioned the workmanship as I pointed out some raised edges in the shower area, I was told by our tiler that this was due to the tile being bent???, I bit my lip & I didn't say anything because I wasn't sure if tiles could or couldn't be bent & after reading some of threads on this forum it appears that this could be the case that some 600 x300 porcelain tiles laid in a brick style may bend causing an effect called lipping due to the incorrect storage or the firing process of tile when being made, we stored the tiles as per the recommendations on the box.
I'm a little disappointed that our tiler never warned me about this lipping effect or more importantly pointed this out to us during the installation so that I/we could take back the effect tiles & source another tile/tiles.
So my question is what do I do next/now? we're not happy with the finish as the raised edges just stands out mile see the picture below & I think the mould will build up on those high edges as it is the shower area, it appears that I can't take the effected tiles back to the shop as they are on wall now...What do we do?....I've attached a picture below am I being picky?
Any advice or tips would be great, many thanks Gareth.
