    Default Advise on setting out please

    Hi I am tiling floors long hall , at end of hall turn right into kitchen. tiles will be following through the doorway with no break.

    should i center the hall and work in to the kitchen or center the kitchen and work out to the hall , im guessing i should center the hall and work in .

    I'd go for centring the hallway, it's more likely to be the initial focal point.

    As above first focal point you will see when you come in to the house will be the hallway,make sure you lay the tiles with equal cuts on both sides, and if you are running into doorways on the hallway stop your tiles half way under the doors.

    remember if you are running over 8 meters you will need an expansion,this might be suited to the door threshold in the kitchen/hallway
