So I'm looking to get a bathroom fitter to do my ensuite.
One of his previous customers sent a few photos of a bathroom he did for them. All were out of focus except the one below.

Am I being over critical in saying the tiles don't look evenly spaced ?

The bathroom fitter has emailed me to say:
Not all tiles are equal in size and they are not all flat (only stone can be 100% the same size, but still not guaranteed). Depending on the size, type they can differ in size 0-2mm for porcelain tiles and with 2mm spacers even 0.5mm will be visible.

(I'm paraphrasing slightly as I don't want to copy the original text here)
Here then posted links to these sights:

And how many plumbers know how to make a wetroom (not many from my experience).
I work with a plumber who is very good at prepping wetrooms.
So that picture you posted then was by a tiler . I wouldn't hold out much hope for the plumbing then if his field of expertise is tiling
