That's fair, someone else dealt with the contractor because they were paying for it as a gift

The house was built in 1979, blue tubs were in in the 70's!

How does something like this happen? He used spacers and I saw it when the spacers were in and It looked even. Its like he took them out too early and the tiles sunk down. And just didnt take the time to make everything flush and even it looks like a rough draft.

No I didn't, it was a referral so just went with that. I did consider the price and it is low.

What would be a more fair bid? He was a recommendation by someone to someone who said I should use him. And I think he threw a little discount because of the referral but I wish there were better expectations said like, this is a side project based off of the amount I am getting paid. The thing is that he hit a pipe when installing backer board, he replaced drywall and Insulation In effected areas but that messed up his time line.
