Tiling

Be honest. What do rate my tiling out of 10. First time doing this.

I would have pulled the switches/sockets out and tiled behind them - that way you don't have a dust collector on the horizontal edge. But sure look we all have to start somewhere. Lines seem to be straight, I'll give you a generous 5 for effort!

You have matched the designs together well on each tile well done. Tiling is not easy. You have hairline cracks in the tiles on the right of the socket in the first pic and another crack on the left tile beside the switch in 2nd pic if you want to redo maybe before grouting.

There plenty of room for Improvement , you’ve a broken tiles and should have taking off the switches and sockets tiled under and then used longer screws to put back up.

the tiles seem uneven. The idea with the spacers , is they they go straight in. To create even space and also the cross bar touches and rests on both sides to ensure that they sit flush with each other. If they are to long , you can get shorter ones

You made life harder on yourself not pulling out the switches and it would have looked better. Everyone starts somewhere so not bad for a first go.

Same comment as other on removing the switches. If you have tiles over, I would suggest removing these tiles which are cracked, and redoing. These switch cut tiles look slightly off line vertically. If doing again, you could cut these switch tiles in half, leaving each half stronger than a full one with a long thin finger remaining after the cut out for the switch.

Well done though!

Do the sockets again, it looks terrible. Get longer screws and tile underneath them.

For that spacing of tile you can put those spacers flat in the cross, looks like the gap is slightly out of line from one row to the next. It's really only on a staggered pattern like subway that you have to use them like you have.

Other than that it looks OK, I do not like that tile pattern personally as the repeating pattern doesn't take into account the grout spacing so it just looks off, but that is subjective I guess.

Well done , tiling is well worth DIYing

Well done. Looks good for 1st time

Certainly better than my first attempt and maybe even my last one.

Take the recommendations on board and happy diy'ing
