Browse Forums General Discussion 1 Feb 06, 2015 11:25 pm Hi Guys, What do you think is wrong with the laying of these porcelain tiles (600x600). Looks to be sloppy craftsmanship as compared to other work I have seen. Is it the improper laying of grout ? There is a void space between porcelain tiles ...what is missing in them ?

They havn't finished yet - they normally wait until the tile glue is dry before grouting. Took them 5 days to come back and grout.
