Love them lol
Looks like a join on the trim about 6" up from the floor as well..........nice!.
Do they do 3m trims ?
Ive only ever seen 2.4m, what happens in old properties , ive always joined them
Q
Qwerty
Schluter are one company who do them but they are pricey. Joining is the only way as widler says. Down low is preferred in most cases as not so visible, but I cut mine so they are virtually impossible to see without bending right down and inspecting closely.
I was assuming it was a wet area....but on second look probably not, but if it was I would keep any joins in trims above the likely wet area.

Check around the shower dial to see if it's been sealed.

Yet more from the archives. 2 weeks old and originally condemned on lippage issues. I tried to ease the first tile off and several came off at once.....juggling with tiles anyone!

Nah,took him weeks to get him out to do this much. Bodged it and legged it
Tile **** at its best.
I tend to find pub loos are getting worse. When it was 6x6 johnsons trade colours and whatnot it was usually not too bad but now they're trying to be a bit posh they screw it up too easy.
Not that I go in much but the weatherpoons near me is pretending its something it isn't and has chrome effect embossed borders that are shockingly cut around half a dozen poorly made boxing in and whatnot.

Customer complaint.... Adhesive faulty apparently (Our own brand, made by palace). Not stuck to the tongue and groove chip-board!!! Wonder why??????
Wow!

To end the complaint, we didn't need to go that far into it. So maybe as it isn't screwed at 300 centres but never confirmed.
