    Poor job by tiler, anything I can do to fix?

    These are kitkats on a mesh backing. Not entirely sure how the tiler has managed to do this. Are you meant to put one tile to the wall leaving a gap and then you overlap the next tile on the other wall? Anything I can do to fix it or at least make it less annoying to look at?
