Setting out, big floor, small tiles - TilersForums.co.uk | Tile Forums

First floor tiling job coming up next week, its a rectangular floor 22 square mtrs - no obstructions, straightforward rectangle. Tiles are small ones 15cms x 15cms. Question I have is, does the fact that its a big space and I'm using such small tiles change in any way how I should set out? Intend to dry lay from centre into far corner, cut corner in first and work out and back from their.

Would rather take this approach and ask for peoples expert advice, than risk any probs. A second (bigger) job at the same gaff rests on how this one goes, I want to start off with high standards.

Thanks.

HI zooney..just set as you normally would...i.e. centre the room etc...but tile in block sections so as to keep it nice and sqaure..use your level to keep your rows straight and work your way back out of the room.........dave..
