Would you be happy with this tiling?

We’ve been having a wet room fitted at our house and I’ve just been to see it for the first time today. The tiles have been cut in random directions and most cuts are not straight and look like they are smashed!

I know there needs to be a slope for the water to drain, but this seems an absolute bodged mess? I have grounds to complain here surely?

Was it definitely a tiler as opposed to a plumber who can tile who did the work? I found out the hard way that it is one thing to put tiles up, but quite another to get a really good finish. Every time I go in the bathroom my tiles annoy me

Too many cowboy builders doing botched jobs.
You need a professional tiler.

The problem is some of these bathroom companies have one or two persons doing it all. Ie plumbing, sanitary instal, and tiling. As said, tiling is such a specialised job to get it right in a bathroom, often the finish is sub optimal

Great that it looks like it will be put right.
We had a new bathroom fitted recently and the tiling is my favourite part.
Also, we just revamped our utility room and had some tiling to do around the sink. DH did it himself and it looks far better than that; I was really impressed.
