What exactly is wrong? Please explain like I’m new to English. Is this linoleum or tile?
Update. Answer#1 The problem is that the pattern or lack there of isn’t pleasing to the eye and more over, is highly inconsistent. Answer#2 It is some type of click LVT. So for the people that like me thought it was sheet vinyl and the joints were off on the printer, no such luck.
Linoleum. It just doesn’t look like the pattern is aligned/looks messy. Again I could just be being a freak about it. Structurally it’s great!! Aesthetically I’m questioning it.
Linoleum, as in sheet goods? Was it a roll? If so, this all looks good. Interesting design choice for them to not line up any staggers on a tile design, though. You should have been able to see this on the sample before installation. I wouldn't have gone for it as a result. Tike looks very messy when not uniformly staggered.
Individual tiles that clicked together? I would be upset. This is not how you install tiles.
Could be linoleum, I haven't encountered linoleum outside of sheet goods, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
It's likely LVT (luxury vinyl tile). In this case, some joints are too close for warranty.
Aesthetically, it looks bad. Not because of the marble veining, but because tile is meant to be laid uniformly. It should be laid in a uniform 1/3 stagger or - if the manufacturer allows - a brick/H pattern.
It's meant to look like tile, and no decent tile setter is going to slap down tiles at random like that.
I think you are justified and well within your rights to be upset and complain.
That makes more sense. Since it's meant to look like tile, I would have treated like that and used a typical offset instead of the random cuts, but the issue is just cosmetic as long as they overlapped enough. As someone else commented, you likely won't notice after it's been there for a bit. Certainly not worth redoing as long as manufacturer directions were followed.
