Is this good or bad tiling

[xxglasglowxx]

We are having new bathrooms installed in our Victorian property. One bathroom is finished but still needs cracks filled/painted as you will see in photos. We are just feeling totally underwhelmed with the finish of the tiling. We are no experts though so would appreciate any thoughts or feedback on the tiling job...thanks in advance.

Morning, i will agree the tile trims should be neater and also the internal corners should be siliconed and not grouted , the rest is perfectly passable judging by the pics.

Trims are poorly finished, internals needs siliconed (especially the one in the first picture as that looks like your shower cubicle internal corner) and a bad wrap at the corner. Not the worst but not the best. I know a great tiler from Glasgow

Do you have any images of the tiles meeting the shower tray? Just to make sure that area has been sealed

I agree it’s not the neatest job and set out could have been better but it is fairly easily salvageable.
You need highlight the issues with your installers.

Thanks for replying. It’s so helpful, given our lack of knowledge! You have basically confirmed what we thought. Tiling is mostly fine, just the finish is quite poor. We spoke to him and he has tried to sort things but in my view has made them worse. Has anyone seen this technique used at the corner of the shower tray....

this tile is also protruding quite a lot now....is that fixable?

That’s shocking.. did you pay for that?

We have paid a bit but not all. We have a meeting tonight with the kitchen/bathroom shop to see what the next step is. We can’t continue with this guy and we still have the main family bathroom to do!

I would politely tell him his services are no longer required.. but that’s me, I wouldn’t be ok with the standard you have shown

either he puts it right as part of what you have paid him, or he walks from the job and you take the hit, or try and get your money back (last one will probably be the hardest)

He has now been removed from the job. Thanks for all the advise.

Silocone down the corners, new trims, replace cracked tile next to the rad, bit of a clean and your good to go.

In my opinion it's not that bad, just compare it to the other bad jobs what are on here.
