No not really. You'll have the tiles for years and if they're not straight it'll irritate you every time you look at them. Worth paying for a proper job.

It's a piece of **** of you've got half a brain, roll your sleeves up. Start on a batten screwed to the wall/floor to get them straight.

hehe I got you.

I've done lots for family and friends, the one thing I will say is it's demanding to work on your knees for 8 hours, leaves me totally shagged out lol. I could never do it pro.
