Seeking advice on an ongoing job (bevelled metro tiles)

[dave l and l]

apart from the boxing in which doesnt look terrible . the rest of the job looks decent , i use trim on the metros, usually 8 mm

Have to agree we have seen a lot worse on here..

Some
Metros are white back but some are biscuit with a thick glaze on, there's that many different ones now you never know. Some are really heavily bevelled and some hardly at all.

DIY sheds metros .....the bevel is virtually non existent...

I'll try and dig out pics from a job I did with mitred crackle-glaze efforts from Laura Ashley.
Terrible to work with as the glaze kept pinging off!

I think they are, because I fixed the exact same later on in different packaging from an internet company at about 1/3 the price.

Those ted baker tiles are bct as well

Tom - not sure where to begin with this.
The trim is wrong, the boxing is wrong , the setting out of the cuts is wrong.
Everything others have said!
For me they should be mitred, the tiles should be laid like bricks so on a return of a full face it should be a half tile and on the cill the front and top should be the same - a brick. Most do this type of tile like wallpaper and I prefer brick blocks. Just my choice.

On the cill i prefer to half bond the top to the front.......just my choice..... (after checking with the customer)..
