I think its where knowledge shows itself, a perfect tile cut around the cistern would have been very difficult, hence the dodgy corners. If he had bothered to remove the cistern, you could have let a child smash tiles till you got the ones the right size to go behind the cistern and refit, would have looked better, no broken edges on show, the reluctance to remove plumbed in items makes the job ten times harder to look nice.

This is the only other one i have...




The lower ones are the ones he chamfered with a grinder- filling their garage up with dust all over everything Laughing Laughing

They arn't fixed on that bit very well either. Its on some crappy hardboard boxing in, that i removed and put back about a year ago, whist they decided what they were going to do.

As you can see the total mismatch, its about 6-8mm Laughing
