Hello,
I'm in the process of planning a bathroom renovation and have been looking at using large format marble tiles.
I would like to use the same tiles on both walls and floor.
My inital thought was to use 610x305mm tiles but have found a couple of places that sell 600x300mm and 600x400mm tiles for significantly less.
I can't however think of a way to lay these tiles out so that everything lines up and runs through from walls to floor without each row being progressively further out due to the grout lines.
I guess the obvious thing is to trim a bit off some of them to get 600x295mm - although how easy it would be to trim 5mm off a 12mm marble tile I don't know. This extra hassle, if indeed it's practical, may also negate the money saved by using these anyway.
Are there any tips/tricks/methods etc. to achieve a nicely lined up layout on walls and floor with these size tiles that I'm missing?
Many thanks,
J
