Internal corner tile
Can anyone help please. I have just had my shower re-tiled, and there was a half inch gap at the internal corners, which the tiler had filled with grout [he said he couldn't cut the tiles that small]. The grout looked bad, so he has now fitted a chrome corner strip, top to bottom on all four internal corners of the shower.
My questions are:
Is this a "normal" thing to do? {i've never seen this before]
Is there a better option, such as a curved corner tile [if there is such a thing?]
Is the chrome edge a safety hazard?
Thanks for all your help!

Is this a "normal" thing to do? {i've never seen this before]....hes obviously a cowboy who cant set out properly
Is there a better option, such as a curved corner tile [if there is such a thing?]...you can get curved corner tiles , go to your local tile store and explain you situation(i would get the tiler to pay for it as he aint done his job properly and im sure you paid him good money for the job to be done right)
Is the chrome edge a safety hazard?... i aint seen chrome edge on internal corners of a shower.
Thanks for all your help!
hope you get sorted m8

Re: Internal corner tile
I'm an amateur but even I can cut a 12mm tile strip if I have to. Would try and plan better though.

Re: Internal corner tile
If the tiler set out correctly then he would have avoided a small slither like that.
If you are not happy then you need to call back your tiler..
