Time's Ran Out

There are some pretty disappointing replies in this post IMO.
The lad has asked for advice and put himself up there to be shot down. Questioning his plumbing ability is not the issue and having seen 'Tilers' post work on here of equal ability then help should be provided if our trade is to be considered a profession.
How many of those with the criticism have NVQ's in tiling or indeed are time served.
Give the lad a break, and provide constructive comments so he can come back knowing it's a friendly forum where his input will be welcome.
By the way - I hate plumbers!
:D

It seems to me that the bigger problem are the tiles.

I've got to say, there are some ridiculous responses on this thread, some people really need to pull their heads out of their arses. A crap tiling job? Really? It's not even finished yet and yes there are a couple of cuts that could be better and the setting out could have done with a bit more though but, crap? No chance. The internal corners will all be siliconed (I hope) so any uneven cuts will not be seen provided they are all within a couple of mm of each other. As has already been said, this forum is about helping people and offering advice, if you have nothing constructive to say, don't bother commenting.

Obviously I'm terribly out of order for having an opinion of the tiling job. The plumber has been tiling for 9 years and is supprised when the customer is 'nit picking'. We all have eyes here and we can all see it's not up to the standard of a decent tiler. If the plumber can't tile to a high enough standard after 9 years he shouldn't be doing it, simple as that!

I'll post up pictures when I'm done.
