It’ll look ok when it’s grouted!
Oh! It is grouted - well it never looks any better anyway.

Which tile, I can't spot it?

Looks like plenty more ''areas for improvement'' elsewhere as well.

this bathroom was pretty bad, no grout in the mosaics on a wet wall, and last tiler finished half the job with black silicone because apparently he had ran out of white silicone!!

That’s very bad work ! I took my installer to court recently and the court have now instructed a building surveyor...to report to the court. After the process it will take a total of a year fighting a poor installer who claims the works ok...that’s with a gap of up to 16mm of grout and silicone at the top of the wall which was supposed to be floor to ceiling tiling... I will update people if and when we may win or not. I am asking for a retile. They even tried to send their mate round claiming he’s independent .. to inspect the works, what a joke

I know it's supposed to be about tiles but I nearly choked on my breakfast when I saw this in a Motel in Wales
