jesperbg 0 Report post Posted February 15, 2009 (edited) Went to inspect some of the tiling works for toilet and notice some defects.. 1) Top tiles height are uneven 2) Cuttings not straight 3) Line not straight (1 pc is used, so shd be striaght rite??) 4) Alignment is out Dunno whether to ask the contractor to re-tile them again. Or are we too stringent? Edited February 15, 2009 by jesperbg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pinkpetter 0 Report post Posted February 15, 2009 Number one and 4... will not be seen later. 1) is quite common cos I think the other side is the wall right? If you're going to have skirting it wouldn't be seen at all. As for 4) when the darker tile goes up the unevenness will not be seen already. however for 2 and 3... the jagged edges I've not seen.. mmm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jesperbg 0 Report post Posted February 18, 2009 notice that cut off between the grey tiles in the foyer and the beige tiles is not aligned with the wall...the reason given by the contractor is that if need to align den the grey tiles need to be cut and will not look nice...also cannot start to lay the grey tiles fr the wall cos wil end up wif a line at the main gate...errr do u all u/stand wat im trying to say? so does it look v weird with the cut off in btwn the wall huh?? btw if i do white grouting for the foyer tiles, will it look ugly? the stain can accept lah hor? no need to exchange hor...
