Next one close to finish is a Hollywood bathroom (separate rooms for dual sinks and a third room for the tub & toilet)
Then the huge master bath.

Still.... You can see shitty tile work from a long way away. You do good work and it shows.
Thank you. This bathtub actually looks pretty jank. Both left and right walls are out of square by almost 2 inches in 6 feet. The entire bathroom leans left. Pretty trippy too because this is close to a million dollar house but the entire second floor is FUCKED. No cracks in anything so that means it was framed this out of plumb.
The master is where it's going to shine.

2 inches in 6'? HOLYFUCK.... At least the tub will empty quick.

Wow, that's nice. Wish I had that skill. I want to remodel our downstairs bathroom. It's just a small half bath, no tub, but I'm afraid I'll start and then fuck up and have to call someone into finish it.
 
Yeah, those studs are way racked. Good work making that goat fuck look right.
My joints are off pretty bad on the onyx. Thing is I had to do that to "try" to hide it in the corners. Each row is off by about 3/8ths and if you look at the free hand shower wand close enough you can tell
 
Any suggestions on how to deal with this? We bought this house back in February. The previous owners were realtors who rented it out to corporate clients, so the fixtures and everything throughout the house are very generic since nobody actually lived here and we've been gradually upgrading. We have this small half bathroom off the kitchen and my wife wants a new vanity in there with a vessel sink. Ideally, we'd just buy a new vanity and swap it out, but whoever tiled the bathroom tiled around the existing vanity and it's impossible to find another one with exactly the same dimensions because I've already tried. I'm trying to find a way to avoid having to retile the bathroom floor in order to install a new cabinet.

Any suggestions would be helpful!

Wouldn't a larger vanity base work? It would sit on the tile instead of against it.

Yeah, I suppose. I could put a thin piece of plywood, the same thickness of the tiles, under it where the current base is flush with the floor and not sitting on tile, but that limits our options to buying a vanity with a solid base all the way to the floor. Many of them have legs and you can see underneath them.

We saw this one at Home Depot, but it's two and a half inches shorter in width than the current vanity, so I'd have to find someway to fill in those two and a half inches that doesn't look weird.

Ah, I wasn't thinking about the ones with legs.

Not sure what dimensions you need to cover.
