Default Skirting & tile spacers

Hi all

Thanks for the info - the customer has requested floor to ceiling tiling with no cove or skirting. They want the floor tiles cut at 75mm strips and these applied over the wall tiles to act as the skirting is this a normal practice?

Also - on the subject of tile spacers I have have been taught to insert the spacers sticking out from the wall and not inlaid so you can remove them before grouting.

I was watching a professional tiler today who was laying them flat and grouting over them I asked him why and he said it was quicker and the normal way to do it - what is everyones views on this please?
