    Default Expansion Joint In Wall Corners

    Hello,

    I'm curious, when tiling into corners, is their any particular reccomendation for gaps?
    I was trying to cut my 8mm ceramic into the corners with a couple of mm to keep it neat, and the silicone bead size in keeping with my grout joint?

    Am I ok, or do I need to leave a bigger gap?

    Cheers

    Jed

    If you are using 2mm spacers just use them in the corner to keep it simple. 2mm is fine mate.
