Advice On Whether This Tiling Is Acceptable?

[One Day]

I'll probably get blasted for saying this but here goes; any professional tiler who needs outfits like trustatrader etc to get work is not going to be at the top of the game. a good tradesman will have a steady stream of work from repeats, referals and recommendations, with no need to advertise at all.

Have any of you guys used urban concrete ? Not defending this guy but they are very sizey and the glaze is prone to chipping

I agree with all of that apart from the last line, I dare say I could possibly get by with previous customer recommendations and trade contacts but...ive only had a website for the past year and the flow of work off it has literally been off the scale since that went online, turning work away till mid Feb at the moment and don't think you can ever have enough potential customers 😉

I have ...and there absolute *****. ....my normal wet cutter ripped the glaze to pieces........Btw there 600x300 wall and floor tile......but I wouldn't recommend it on the floor...
No excuse for a crap job.....as pro tilers you should be able to get round these issues. .

This maybe so, but I said to them "if there was a problem with the tiles cutting they should of let me know, I wud of gone and got more", but they didn't say and he put up chipped ones, no excuse for that!

Only had them as main wall tile, there were good reviews about them on B@Q I looked before I brought them, yes no excuse for crap job.

Apparently he's always busy so this is why I can't understand why he put no care an thought into doing mine, he's coming back this morning to rectify some of the issues, he can't do them all or he'll have to start from scratch and I don't want him here for another 2 days.

Please dont go posting prices ...

Can you post pics taken a bit further back ?

Imho close up pics highlight probs to be worse than they seem , not saying your cuts are ok but would like to see pics taken a tad further back..

The mosaics are deffo out of line .. If its just a few errors , then they can be corrected to keep all parties satisfied.
