Hi mate ....
Is it your first job - then if so not bad.
A few pointers, questions.

Were the tiles diff sizes - you seem to have had problems, some do not seem to line up properly.
Ceiling height - some of your cuts are stepped - seem to have a rather large bead of silicone going round the top - One tip is either going from left to right or right to left, measure one side of the next tile from the one you have just cut, that way any changes in size are not as noticeable.
What's going on with the border ?

Sorry, I do not intend to be harsh. Good luck for the future

NIce job, I would have centred the window though :)


I can see why he may have not centred the window. If you push the tiles to the left (in your head) to get it looking fancy, you'll see a small gap appears on the far left tiles, push them right from what they are to centre the window and you get a small cut either side the window. The two symmetrical options around the window don't give good cuts either side of the walls. I think. (I've been playing with photo shop on it lol).

Trying to match these brown stone effect bathroom wall tiles. They are size 30 x 45cms -which seems to be a very hard size to find. Does anyone recognise them, please?
