The argument to charge an extra fee because the tiles are rectified is complete rubbish. With rectified tiles, you can achieve smaller grout lines, that's it. You don't have to work more carefully or more precisely, which would of course justify an additional charge. Rectified tiles are more expensive because the production is more complex, but not the installation.
So don't let yourself be fooled. Either he does it without the surcharge or you find a new tiler.
Besides, do you really want to mix tiles (I understood sizes, formats, and colors) on one floor just because you want to save money? Tiles are not laminate or vinyl that you can rip out if you don't like it after four years.
I basically agree with you about mixing the tiles. But since the large-format tiles really look like wooden floorboards, I think it is quite doable. On the contrary, I even think it increases the illusion effect, because who installs parquet flooring in the kitchen? If the kitchen is tiled with tiles that obviously look like tiles, it looks much more like kitchen tiles, living and dining area parquet. Of course, narrow grout lines are also needed for the wood-effect tiles.
Yes, and of course it’s a cost issue because everything with wood-effect tiles would be almost 3000 euros more.
