Usage of these two types of back boxes below would have resulted in an appearance more pleasant to the eye. Usage of a spirit level or line laser would have ensured a perfect finish. There really is no excuse for such lazy, sloppy workmanship. Whoever did this merits a hard kick in the gonads.

The customer gave me the "electricians" Business card with his Facebook page on it, was surprised when I saw who his previous employer was, a well know well respected company who would not be impressed with his workmanship.

Unfortunately, those boxes only work with standard size white switches, etc. The brushed metal ones the OP has are wider than the standard.

As above, some 20mm bushes may be a solution, or just plain care and workpersonship.

I always leave a box width between boxes this way it overcomes the issue of the socket plate sizes, allows plastering etc between boxes and if slightly unlevel sometimes not so noticeable. They should have left as grid switch. Hopefully, there is a bit of giving on the K.O. box.

Confused by that statement?
