Full rip out and re-tile. Opinions welcome - TilersForums.com

The set out is the best I could get foe the window to be symetrical. Didn't want to start full tile off the wall either. Customer happy. 4m joints which I also explained in another thread because the tile from B&Q were that bad in size. I don't do that ever but they were just so bad when opening them up I had to switch to 4m joints. Told customer first and she actually wanted wide joints anyway.

Ripped out, reboarded the lot.

Some nice cuts around the window their!! Nice work. Could you not have moved the tiles up a few inch to give yourself full tiles around the window?

No as the shower tray would have had a really really small slither. Pain in the arse lol but this is literally the best set out I could find. Had to crack and thanks for the comment.

In photo 7 couldn't you have set that wall out differently?

 

[Anto Holland]

This is the way I went for. What would you have done?

Centre tile to centre line & wouldn't have gave you as small a cut at either side.

Fair enough. Photo makes it look smaller than what it is though to be fair. Weird but true. I'll take note though

If it's anything less than a half tile then switch your tile from starting on the grout line to the centre of the tile.

What I did with the window wall amongst other ways (focal point) most important. I didn't really see any issues with that when setting it so carried on I suppose. Now i'm on here I will probably think what the forum might say before I go with my set out choice haha. Cheers tho. Notes stored.

It's got nothing to do what the forum might say, it's about doing the job & doing it correctly.
I'm sorry but I wouldn't accept that as in my eyes it's wrong.
Yes it's centred on the wall but the tiles are set out wrong..
