Since we're being honest!
I'd say the back wall should be 3 not 4 pieces.

 

[Just Rizzle]

small cuts around a window dose my head as windows can be the focal point of the room some times its best to center the window rather than the wall its in. the mosaics I do last as I leave a gap to and dog tooth them in thencan get them flush and level also some mosaic strengthener helps keep them rigid when fixing. the backwall looks like 3 tiles could have been used rather than 4 grouting can hide a few thing but also highlight others.
did you go on acourse to do your plumbing or did you pick it up as you went along like your tiling?

 

[Time's Ran Out]

I'am in favour of the 4 pieces on the back wall and also the fact that the window cuts look equal, and therefore the subsequent cut to the back wall makes it look like a tile size bent around the corner.

It is 3. The edges are one. I cut one side then flipped the large off cut into the other side

so if you trained to be a plumber why haven't you trained to be a tiler.

why do plumbers think its easy tiling. is it because theve seen tillers doing it and think that's easy. youre probably a brilliant plumber but looking at your picks your an average tiler m8 find a good tiler in your area and team up then he will get the niggles not you. you could end up like me and my m8 bri we do high end bathrooms for a couple of bathroom companies and most of the time we start Monday and finish Friday or the latest Saturday .
our customers trust us to do a good job as were experts in our own fields we also do the jobs quicker, so the clients have minimal disruption to there lives. when your ripping some ones house apart they get stressed and want you out A S P and because there stressed they turn and the longer the job takes the more time they have to find fault because as soon as you've gone for the night there examining your work in minutes detail. and as tiling is in my opinion an art. it is on show so is always on show for critisimum. the first thing a person sees when they walk in a bathroom is the tiling not the plumbing .so the tiling is what shows the job to be what it is. not the pipes under the floor.

Hi, I am not a professional tiler. So I think I cam comment from a customer point of view.

The back wall looks fine with cuts at each end, though both walls to the back wall should have come onto the back wall not just one side. Though this may not be am issue once grouted and siliconed. But I would have noticed this when seeing it.

The mosaics are not flat they bend in towards the centre which does not look right, I would have said about them.

I agree with the cuts around the corner, this should have been set out from the window, or at least set out so that a full tile comes up to the edge and around so no small bits.

Some tile at the ceiling are not cut the right size to the others and that stands out.

Did you use a long level when checking the tiles as some appear to not align in depth.

I have recently just done my own bathroom and whilst it took me 3 weeks to tile and grout (I am sure some here could have done in a week or less, I made sure I checked all the tiles with a level to make sure they were all flat.

If I was a paying customer I would have these concerns.

I dare say my pics I show here bring out some horrors to look at, which is why I took so long setting out and doing the cuts.

Anyway,just my thoughts from a customer angle.

having looked closely at the pics, it's a ***derogatory comment deleted *** tiling job. Leave it to a tiler next time and stick to plumbing
