Am I being a perfectionist? - TilersForums.com

I found some natural stone with mitres I’ve done.

If the original tiler thought that the (rough) cuts weren't a problem
What other (unseen)problems might arise in the future.
Dotting&Dabbing?,weight issues onto skimmed plaster,no sealer used,etc,etc

Lovely! According to my tiler’s logic, you have achieved the impossible

Exactly, I am also worried about this. I am going to start phoning round to get some opinions/quotes tomorrow and am going to ask people to give a view on the whole thing as there may be other obvious things you can see that I don’t have the expertise to recognise. The bad cutting is pretty widespread so it might be that there’s no option but for some/all of them to come off. Terrible waste of tiles if so!

Did he cut the marble with his teeth?
