Mate that's a great finish to the sealant one of those things that looks easy but when there is that much to do it's very hard to get a neat consistent finish
That's an incredible finish on those types of stones. I fit garage doors in openings with these stones a lot and any dark sealant around them is a nightmare, id be very proud of that!
Thanks guys, looking at it again it looks like a tight fit on the inside, so I suspect it’s the only way of making it work with the variation in stone. It does look great, I was just concerned it was miss-measured on first glance.
I dunno. I agree it's a great sealant finish the person has done.
But IMHO it still looks terrible. Something isn't right to need that much sealant. I wouldn't be happy with such a fit.
Even though this looks neat it’s not the right way to do it. It’s a botch and they should have measured better. This is clearly an issue with the window being too small for the opening. Regardless of how good the bead looks, you should never ever use a bead that thick.
There are trims they can use to hide it at least. I’d definitely ask them to make it look better before I paid.

This is the inside which looks pretty snug to me
Thanks for taking the time to post this. It’s not particularly loose but there is about an inch of foam on the left side. That might be because your opening was not square, but I still think the outside bead is excessive. It’s nicely done but too wide. Silicone doesn’t last forever and when you have to redo it, you will struggle.
That's well tidy. Can't believe you'd consider complaining
10/10 for whoever did that, a really good finish
It also looks very neat
I'd be happy with that, it's often done with too little!
Looks great

Is the frame tight to the stone in any place or is this seal the entire length of the window?
Good luck when you need to redo it.
That’s really nice work. Baffling that you think it’s not acceptable.

Yeah it would be next to impossible to get that to fit in those blocks without a bead that big as they aren’t uniform size and shape like bricks

the stone size/shape variation makes it look worse than it actually is, seems fine.
How someone would consider complaining about this job is bizarre, neat and clean finish around that stone.
If you don't know, you don't know. Sometime you just need a second opinion to settle your mind,
Looks like a job well done
This looks fantastic compared to what mine was left like!
Looks amazing top job to who’s done that. Very tricky material to seal and very uniform proper good work I’d be chuffed!
Good stickmanship this … it’s a dying trade
Perfectly done
Stonework definitely looks like it runs pretty uneven around the profile. Looks like a neat job.

OP literally said it's tight on the inside...
A pic of the inside would help, OP.
