If that is your first job then i think you have picked the right career to change to. Excellent stuff m8.
 
Tell you what mate, there is some superb work there. Probably could have done without the smidgen cuts on the blue tiles above the sink, but what the hell. Excellent. Well done 🙂
 
thanks for the replys, not to be picky but the sink was removed so the their wasnt really cuts above the sink the sink just happend to end up there, near the top of the tile, but cheers for advice

Sorry I meant the bath. Does the same thing apply?
 
No sorry, I know what you mean there, i had bother setting out to line up the window with the rest of the room as the room wasnt to be tiled the full way up just level with the window so got good cuts at the window but the bath cuts were a bit of work. dont know how id have got round them
 
Hiya pal - generally nice work there - but why did't you loose the slivers around the bath ?
Surely not impossible if you had set out correctly. Where did you learn ?
 
Fair play mate - there is a good reason for everything 🙂

Nice work still though 🙂
 
Even so - with this in mind I would have advised the customer that it would not be a good idea to go bang on level with the window, perhaps an inch or so lower, that way you would have lost the slivers around the bath. 🙂
 
cheers leatherface ill take that on board, im still learning at college in northern ireland im about half way through my nvq level2
