Hello everyone, the tiling work in our new build has been completed. We are far from satisfied with the results. The tiler says everything is within tolerance, but we find that hard to believe. That’s why we wanted to get some independent opinions. What do you think? Were the work carried out according to recognized standards and technical rules or relevant DIN regulations?
We would appreciate any helpful responses.
Best regards, Gerrit

It is difficult to assess this based on your pictures; the angle of the photos "can" be misleading.
At first glance, I would suspect that the tiler has not delivered a perfect job in some places and will need to do some rework. Overall, however, all the work should be within the allowable tolerances.

The close-up of the joint at the edge is naturally problematic, but with a normal gap, it won’t be as noticeable.
Here is a tip for the small holes in the grouting: simply fill them by smoothing some plaster over them with your finger. This also works for the joint at the edges.
