Tile trim advice - opinion on install and remedial work - TilersForums.com

[Stu0299]

Hi, new to forum and after some advice after a professional install. Just had kitchen splashbacks tiled and the finish of the corners on the edge trim is really bothering me. I've spent a lot of money on the kitchen and this is bothering me to the point where I'd be willing to rip all the tiles off and start again. What are your thoughts on it? It doesn't seem right to me and I'd really appreciate advice about:

1. Whether they've been installed correctly
2. How can they be removed or remedied

Otherwise I think the tiling is good.

Many thanks

Yeah looks bad pity didnt use gold epoxy tile grout to match the gold

Looks horribly sharp too. That definitely needs dressing back with a file.
It might be worth trying to make a filler from filings and super glue to see if it can be saved before doing anything too drastic.

Looks like he had the right idea of cutting the trim with a 45 degree mitre but the execution is poor I agree it looks untidy should get him back too replace.

You can get the trim out pretty easy if you use a chisel and a hammer hitting it upwards but by how he left it I don’t think he’s capable of doing that.
