little hallway i have done - Tile Advice

[Mr Tiler]

there you go guys tiled the floor sanded door down re-painted and put the new sign on... and also fitted new door step need to go back and repair the bottom of doorway as its rotted out il do that when I go back to do there splash

 

[Brian the Tile]

but why did you not centre the floor? just askin

 

[Mr Tiler]

i did centre the room when i was setting out but move the tiles around so there was a nice big cut where the front door is mate. would t of looked better centred you think mate? thanks

 

[Ian]

Nice looking little job, well done mate

 

[PaulSmith]

Nice job. Looks like you centered for the door .

 

[AMtek]

I would have centered on the door as well, is that a cut at the door or a full tile? Possibly could have balanced the cuts at the door and back wall a bit more

 

[Dan]

Looks good.

I might have pulled it towards the door more, so the cut at the door was about the same as the cut at the back. Not sure without looking at it though, as it then would have made the cut behind the door smaller and that might not have looked as centre as we'd assume only seeing it at the door.

Sort of personal preference that, there's nowt wrong with it either way per se.

Looks good to me.

Are those tiles procelain glazed or ceramic?

no mate not a full tile from the door just over 3 quarters mate. rite next to the door on the left is a double doorway so istead of having a slither running into the doorway I moved the tiles backward from the centre a bit so there was a nice cute running into the door also doing so centred the double doorway so yeh I sacrificed the centre of the room to centre both doorways thanks for the feedback guys

porcelain mate only problem really was that I have a crappy blade on my grinder so it was chipping away at the edge of the tile when I was cutting so I just gave the cuts a once over when I cut them
