Default wall running out

Hi, am in the process of tiling a bathroom i set out the first wall made sure the first row was level but as i started to tile up towards the ceiling the gap between the tile and the other wall started at 5mm at the bottom but was a good 10mm at the top i managed to cover it up when i tiled the other wall but i would like to know how i could avoid this again in the furture thanks...

Default Re: wall running out

When you centre your wall etc etc...take your vertical centre line from floor to ceiling and then measure across from the line to the opposite wall/s and see what the difference is..this will tell you what is out and where........and try to avoid working full tiles to corners if the wall runs out.....
